Geometry-driven organisation in living matter

ORAL · Invited

Abstract

The spontaneous generation of patterns and structures occurs in many living systems and is linked to biological form and function. Such processes often take place on domains which themselves evolve in time, and they can be guided by or coupled to geometrical features. Using different biophysical examples, I will discuss how geometry directs spatial organization and biological function.
