DESCRIPTION:Real plant cells come in all shapes and sizes. But what govern
 s shape formation? What function do the cell shapes have? My research trie
 s to answer these questions from a mathematical-physical perspective\, usi
 ng maize as a model system.\nDuring my talk we will explore how the shape 
 of the epidermal cells varies during growth\, identify the best mathematic
 al descriptors for quantifying cell shapes and discuss a number of experim
 ents that help verifying hypotheses about formation and function.\n
