Gastrulation is thought to be driven primarily by forces generated within individual cells. These cell-intrinsic forces collectively induce tissue-scale flows and transform the monolayered embryo into...

We present a topology grounded, multiscale simulation platform for morphogenesis and biological active matter. Morphogenesis and biological active matter represent keystone problems in biology with ad...

A small tissue fold present in fruit fly embryos buffers mechanical stresses and may have evolved in response to mechanical forces.

During morphogenesis, initially flat tissues often must transition into complex 3D shapes, reminiscent of shape-programmable systems in physics and engineering. One key question in developmental biolo...
