Synthetic Morphogenesis: QBio Summer Course at KITP, UC Santa Barbara
Posted by Maggie Sherriffs, on 16 December 2022
Synthetic Morphogenesis, the Santa Barbara Advanced School of Quantitative Biology Summer Research Course, will run from July 24 – August 25, 2023 at the Kavli Institute for Theoretical Physics, UC Santa Barbara. Postdocs and advanced graduate students with physical, mathematical, and life science backgrounds are invited to apply.
This course will study synthetic morphogenesis by integrating quantitative data analysis and mathematical modeling, in a variety of hands-on projects. Experimental systems include the mechanobiology of human embryonic stem cell patterning, mechanical pattern formation in the avian dermis, synthetic morphogenesis with mouse as well as human embryonic stem cell lines, and the regenerative model system hydra. Students will also attend lectures in the concurrent KITP program Dynamics of Self-Organization in Animal and Plant Development.
