Active forces driving spreading and retraction of living tissues Carlos Pérez González, Integrative Cell and Tissue Dynamics group Development, regeneration and cancer involve drastic transitions in tissue morphology. In analogy with the behaviour of inert fluids, some of these transitions have been interpreted as wetting transitions. The validity and scope of this analogy are unclear, ... Read more

Mechanical control of cell division Martijn Gloerich, UMC Utrecth, Center for Molecular Medicine, Molecular Cancer Research During development and adult tissue homeostasis, cellular behavior is controlled by signals that cells receive from their local environment. This is not limited to biochemical signals, as cell behavior can be instructed by mechanical forces exerted by neighbouring cells ... Read more
