The importance of nematic order and active nematic behaviour to epithelial morphogenesis is becoming increasingly clear. Several approaches have been developed to adapt vertex models, one of the most ubiquitous methods of modelling epithelia, to also include nematic activity. Here, … Read More

Speakers: Urša Uršič (Max Planck Institute of Molecular Cell Biology and Genetics) The first few cell divisions are crucial for successful embryonic development of multicellular organisms. In order to divide properly, a myriad of biochemical and mechanical events need to … Read More
