Workshop: Multicellular assemblies - architectures, properties, engineering |
|
(Nanowerk News) A one day workshop organized by the Observatory for Micro and Nanotechnologies (CNRS-CEA, France), titled Multicellular assemblies : Architectures, Properties, Engineering, will take place on october 20, 2010 in Paris. | |
The properties of populations of cells are largely conditioned by the cell-cell and cell-environment interactions, conferring them unique features whose study greatly benefits from the use of micro-technologies. In return, these technologies are of great interest to engineer tissues in a first attempt to reproduce the structure and function of organs. | |
This one-day workshop will gather internationally recognized researchers working on different aspects of these multicellular assemblies. Speakers will cover a large spectrum outlining the various length scales involved in the architectures and mechanical properties of tissues, as well as the influence of their physical environment. | |
The Observatory for Micro and NanoTechnologies (France) aims at performing a strategic watch based on a network of more than 300 experts in different fields within Micro and NanoTechnologies. |
