DESCRIPTION:Shape is a fundamental property of biological systems that und
 erlies the function of organs and tissues. Numerous studies have delineate
 d the roles of mechanical stress and mechanical properties in the control 
 of shape changes. However\, our understanding of the contribution of the i
 nitial cell or tissue geometry to subsequent morphogenesis lags behind. Du
 ring my talk\, I will explore the role of cell and tissue geometry in morp
 hogenesis by addressing the following two questions: How cell size influen
 ces cell stiffness and tissue elongation\, and how tissue curvature modula
 tes tissue folding. Thereby\, my seminar will delineate the basic principl
 es by which given cell and tissue geometry influences tissue morphogenesis
 .
