Venue A 1F Conference Room 101
Organizers:Koji Kikuchi(Kumamoto University), Masakazu Yamazaki(Akita University)
The diverse cellular dynamics that give rise to tissue identity are specified and driven at the molecular level through a complex interplay of genetic, biochemical, mechanical, and environmental factors. This intricate regulation ensures that cells within tissues exhibit the appropriate behaviors and functions to form and maintain functional tissues and organs. In this symposium, we will introduce the latest research that unravels cellular dynamics at the molecular level.
