Welcome!

The purpose of the workshop is to bring together leading experts and researchers in the areas of finite elements and mechanobiology, with a specific interest in modelling morphogenesis in animal and plant systems.

During the workshop we aim at discussing in a cooperative manner the latest advancements, challenges and opportunities in this research field, with a particular focus on the following sub-topics:

  • Cell/tissue large deformations and growth
  • Meshing/Remeshing challenges and topology changes
  • Coupled surface-bulk dynamics (cortex-cytoplasm, epithelium-yolk etc...)
  • Mechanochemical couplings
  • Multiscale modelling of morphogenesis
  • Acceleration techniques
