Seminar by Prof. Herbert Levine on “Cell – ECM interactions and their relevance for cancer progression

CES Seminar Hall CES Seminar Hall, 3rd Floor, Biological Science Building

Speaker: Prof. Herbert Levine (Satish Dhawan Visiting Chair Professor, IISc) Title: Cell – ECM interactions and their relevance for cancer progression Abstract: During metastasis, tumor cells must traverse fibrous extracellular matrix (ECM) en route to the circulation. Conversely, immune cells must traverse the same medium en route to attacking a tumor. Thus, the study of the reciprocal feedbacks between […]

Seminar by Dr. Somenath Bakshi on “Connecting the dynamics of microbial systems across scales”

Online

Title: Connecting the dynamics of microbial systems across scales Abstract:  Biological reactions often involve low-copy molecular reactants, leading to stochastic outcomes. As a result, there is substantial heterogeneity among cells, even when they experience the same external conditions. Recent theoretical and experimental investigations have demonstrated that for microbial systems such heterogeneity is of important consequence to […]
