Dang, Y. (author)How a system of genetically identical biological cells organizes into spatially heterogeneous tissues is a central question in biology. Even when the molecular and genetic underpinnings of cell-cell interactions are known, how these lead to multicellular patterns is often poorly understood. Of particular interest are dynamic patterns such as...doctoral thesis 2020

In this thesis, we aim to understand how...doctoral thesis 2015
