Mechanical signalling has emerged as an important regulator of cell biology and physiology. Forces, flows and fluctuations can have remarkable influences on the properties of molecules, cells, tissues and organs. How living systems generate, sense and transduce mechanical stimuli, and what consequences these have for development and disease are questions that are intrinsically interdisciplinary and have captured the interests not just of biologists but also engineers, mathematicians and theoretical physicists.
The school will bring together leading researchers engaged in understanding the active mechanical principles regulating an amazing diversity of biological systems over a variety of length scales using experimental and theoretical interdisciplinary approaches. The program will combine pedagogy and research with leisurely and detailed scientific interactions and serve to train advanced students, postdocs and faculty from India and abroad in this young and rapidly growing area at the interface of biology and the physical sciences and engineering.
