Mathematical Modeling and Analysis of Multicellular Dynamics in Epithelial Morphogenesis
Unravel the mysteries of biological morphogenesis with a comprehensive framework that connects experimental observations, hypothesis formulation, simulations, and inference computations. This video showcases how these elements integrate to provide insights into the mechanisms driving tissue folding and 3D shape formation.
Key Topics:
Experimental observations as a foundation for modeling morphogenesis
Hypothesis-driven simulations of tissue deformation
Biological relevance to neural tube formation, intestinal villi, and beetle horn development
Inference computations revealing the role of spatial patterns in differential growth
This approach bridges theory and experiment, advancing our understanding of developmental biology and bioengineering applications.
