Explore fundamental concepts of tissue mechanics in this graduate-level lecture presented by Dr. L Preziosi as part of the Mathematical Oncology Graduate Course at the Fields Institute. Delve into the mathematical principles and physical properties that govern tissue behavior, focusing on the mechanical aspects of biological tissues and their relevance to oncology. Learn how mathematical models can describe and predict tissue deformation, stress responses, and mechanical interactions within biological systems. The lecture serves as an essential foundation for understanding the role of tissue mechanics in cancer development and progression, combining principles from continuum mechanics, biomechanics, and mathematical modeling.
