SUMMARY:32nd BioCity Symposium: Sculpting tissues - cells\, matrix and forc
 es
DESCRIPTION:\n\nThe 32nd BioCity Symposium will explore the mechanisms regu
 lating tissue architecture and homeostasis in biological organisms. This c
 omplex and dynamic “sculpting” process is carefully coordinated from t
 he very beginning of life. Cells build tissues by proliferating\, migratin
 g\, altering phenotype and generating a modifiable extracellular matrix (E
 CM).\n\nIn turn\, the ECM’s biochemical and biomechanical properties det
 ermine cell behaviour and cell-cell crosstalk to control gene expression a
 nd cell state and the response to injury and insult (tissue repair\, fibro
 sis\, inflammation\, cancer) and therapeutic targeting. Next year’s BioC
 ity Symposium will focus on this reciprocal interplay between cells and th
 eir microenvironment to build healthy tissues\, and how dysregulation ulti
 mately leads to disease.\n\n.\nConfirmed speakers\nChristopher Chen\, The
