“Mechanics of Epithelial Tissues: Structure, Rigidity and Fluidity” (10/24/2017)

Start Date:	10/24/2017	Start Time:	12:30 PM
End Date:	10/24/2017	End Time:	1:30 PM

The Center for Theoretical Biological Physics PRESENTS Seminar Speaker Dapeng “Max” Bi Assistant Professor Department of Physics Northeastern University “Mechanics of Epithelial Tissues: Structure, Rigidity and Fluidity” Tuesday, October 24, 2017 12:30 – 1:30 PM BRC, 10th Floor, Room 1060 A/B Abstract: Cells must move through tissues in many important processes, including development, cancer metastasis, and wound-healing. Often tissues are dense and a cell's motion is strongly constrained by its neighbors, leading to glassy dynamics. Although there is a density-driven glass transition in particle-based models, these cannot fully explain liquid-solid transitions in confluent tissues. I will demonstrate the existence of a new type of rigidity transition that occurs in confluent tissues at constant density. The onset of rigidity is governed by a model parameter that encodes single-cell properties such as cell-cell adhesion and cortical tension. I will also introduce a new model that captures polarized cell motility and multicellular interactions in a confluent tissue and identify a glass transition that originates at the rigidity transition. This work provides an experimentally accessible parameter that helps to distinguish fluid and solid tissues. I will present a direct application of this theoretical framework to cultured Human Bronchial Epithelial Cells. Bio: Dr. Bi obtained his PhD in physics from Brandeis University in 2012, his thesis work focused on understanding the mechanics of granular materials under the supervision of Bulbul Chakraborty. He did my postdoctoral training first at Syracuse University (working with Cristina Marchetti and Lisa Manning) where he began to work on the mechanics of biological cells and tissues. He then became an independent Sackler Fellow at Rockefeller University, where he worked on problems related to embryonic development and cancer. In January of 2017, Dr. Bi started his own group as an Assistant Professor at Northeastern University in Boston, MA.

Dear colleagues and invited guests, You are cordially invited to the neuroscience seminar on Friday, November 3 featuring Gloria Choi, PhD. Dr. Choi joined the MIT faculty in 2013 as a McGovern Investigator and an assistant professor in the Department of Brain and Cognitive Sciences, where she holds the Samuel A. Goldblith Career Development Professorship. Choi received her Ph.D. from Caltech, where she studied with David Anderson, following which she was a postdoctoral researcher in the laboratory of Richard Axel at Columbia University. In 2014, Dr. Choi was named to Cell’s ‘40 under 40’ list. Dr. Choi’s seminar is titled “Maternal Infection: Microbiome to Cortical Dysfunction”. We will meet from 11 a.m. – 12 p.m. in N315 auditorium in Alkek. This seminar is hosted by Dr. Benjamin Deneen, Associate Professor in the Department of Neuroscience, Center for Cell and Gene Therapy. Seminar flyer is attached. Please check periodically the seminar series webpage for speaker schedule and other updates: Neuroscience Department Seminar Series website.
