BioX Mechanobiology Symposium, Nov 6, 2014
Bio-X Symposium on Mechanobiology
Thursday November 6, 2014
Clark Auditorium
Stanford University
This Symposium aims to educate students, postdoctoral fellows and established scientists from different disciplines about Mechanobiology by presenting talks on sensory systems, mechanically mediated cellular signaling, and the role of mechanics in homeostasis. Topics include mechanisms, methods and mechanical pathways ranging in temporal and spatial scales from ion channels and protein conformational changes to cell and tissue mechanics in growth, differentiation, disease and regeneration. The Symposium features invited speakers, talks from postdoctoral fellows selected from submitted abstracts, a networking lunch, and Poster reception. Attendees from Bay Area Schools are invited to submit abstracts with their registration and participate in the poster session.
We look forward to welcome you on November 6.
