Cellular models for tissue function in development and ageing
One of the most fundamental challenges in contemporary biology is in fact also one of the most classical ones: how to comprehend macroscopic tissue function from the activities of its microscopic cellular components. The remarkable advent of single cell genomics over the last decade is realizing this challenge at unprecedented scales. Measurements of the molecular states of thousands or even millions of cells can now be acquired efficiently, and tools for describing cellular states phenomenologically became well established. But how to model ensemble of cells in tissues is paradoxically even more difficult than before given this new unprecedented experimental resolution. To this end we will…
