[Soft-matter] Soft Matter and Complex Systems Seminar on 17 Nov 2023

[Maciej Lisicki]

Dear Soft Matter & Complex Systems Colleagues and Friends,

On Friday 17 November 2023 at 9:30 AM at the UW Faculty of Physics (Pasteura 5, Warsaw; room 1.40) we are hosting a seminar during which

Annemiek Cornellissen and Camille Le Scao (Université Paris Cité)

will give a talk

Morphogenesis of branching networks in jellyfish and fern leaves

Abstract

Transport networks in living organisms show a variance of architecture, with either ramified or looped networks. These transport networks develop in parallel with the organisms, arising from local interactions and feedback mechanisms, resulting in self-organizing patterns.

In this presentation, we will first introduce general concepts used in morphogenesis, such as noise, instabilities and emergent patterns. We will then focus on the morphogenesis of the gastrovascular network of the jellyfish Aurelia aurita and on the vascular system of leaves.

We warmly welcome everyone to attend the talk and the Soft Matter Coffee Break after the seminar, held in room 2.63 (2nd floor).
