Explore the complex dynamics of cellular tissues through this research seminar examining how topological changes and fluidisation processes influence tissue behavior. Delve into the fundamental mechanisms that govern cellular rearrangements and transitions between solid-like and fluid-like states in biological tissues. Investigate the mathematical and physical principles underlying tissue dynamics, including the role of cell-cell interactions, mechanical forces, and geometric constraints in driving topological transformations. Analyze how these processes contribute to essential biological phenomena such as tissue morphogenesis, wound healing, and cancer metastasis. Examine experimental observations and theoretical models that describe the transition from jammed to flowing states in cellular assemblies. Learn about the interdisciplinary approaches combining physics, biology, and mathematics used to understand these complex systems, and discover how insights from soft matter physics apply to living tissues.
