Systems morphodynamics: understanding the development of tissue hardware

Year: 2017

Type: article

Abstract: Systems morphodynamics describes a multi-level analysis of mechanical morphogenesis that draws on new microscopy and computational technologies and embraces a systems biology-informed scope. We present a selection of articles that illustrate and explain this rapidly progressing field.This article is part of the themed issue 'Systems morphodynamics: understanding the development of tissue hardware'.
