SUMMARY:32nd BioCity Symposium: Sculpting tissues – cells\, matrix and fo
 rces
DESCRIPTION:The 32nd BioCity Symposium will explore the mechanisms regulati
 ng tissue architecture and homeostasis in biological organisms. This compl
 ex and dynamic “sculpting” process is carefully coordinated from the v
 ery beginning of life. Cells build tissues by proliferating\, migrating\, 
 altering phenotype and generating a modifiable extracellular matrix (ECM).
 \n\nIn turn\, the ECM’s biochemical and biomechanical properties determi
 ne cell behaviour and cell-cell crosstalk to control gene expression and c
 ell state and the response to injury and insult (tissue repair\, fibrosis\
 , inflammation\, cancer) and therapeutic targeting. Next year’s BioCity 
 Symposium will focus on this reciprocal interplay between cells and their 
 microenvironment to build healthy tissues\, and how dysregulation ultimate
 ly leads to disease.\nConfirmed speakers\nChristopher Chen\, The Biologica
