Visitor Letters 84 2 Director’s Statement Dear IMBS Colleagues and appropriate administrators, Again, it is the time of the year to review the activities of our IMBS members and of the IMBS over the past academic year. A crude measure of the activity over the year is that IMBS members were on grants (some multiyear and multi-participants) involving over $80 MM; while many of these grants were processed through individual departments, they nicely reflect the research activity stimulated by IMBS. Another measure is given by publications and presentations. Here again IMBS is doing quite well; during the year our members published over 190 papers (which includes some books), and gave over 185 invited presentations. (For more specific information about individual activity, please see the Appendices of this report.) This has been, again, an active year! The strength of the IMBS comes directly from our members and their contributions.

  • Here the Dynamic Structure and Function of Multicellular Systems Is More Accessible to Measurement and Manipulation Than in Vivo
    Welcome to EMBL · IBEC Winter Conference on ENGINEERING MULTICELLULAR SYSTEMS Recent breakthroughs in stem cell biology, organ-on-chip assays, 3D Bioprinting, and cell mechanobiology have revolutionized our ability to design and assemble multicellular living systems, from organoids to embryos. This conference will focus on how engineering multicellular living systems is boosting our understanding of tissue and organ function, with applications in disease modelling, drug screening, and tissue engineering. Organizing Committee: James Sharpe, EMBL · Chair Xavier Trepat, IBEC · Chair Miki Ebisuya, EMBL Nuria Montserrat, IBEC Josep Samitier, IBEC Vikas Trivedi, EMBL EMBL Barcelona Scientists at EMBL Barcelona explore how tissues and organs function and develop, in health and disease. We combine a number of themes and approaches to achieve this: • The development and use of 3D in vitro models, (organoids, vascular systems, and others) where the dynamic structure and function of multicellular systems is more accessible to measurement and manipulation than in vivo. • Quantitative approaches and computational modelling, to create more a rigorous understanding and predictions of the dynamics of multicellular systems. • 3D and 4D mesoscopic imaging tailored towards tissues, organs and organoids. We develop and improve these state-of-the-art technologies, as well as using them for our research. • An engineering and synthetic philosophy, in which building and creating new biological models is a key part of understanding and controlling them. Using these approaches, EMBL Barcelona studies a variety of multicellular questions: • Organogenesis – how a complex mammalian organ (the limb bud) develops, grows and organises itself during development. • Scaling – how dynamic patterning processes change their relative speeds and sizes, across different tissues and species.

    INTERPRETATION AND SCALING OF POSITIONAL INFORMATION DURING DEVELOPMENT Thesis by Marcos Nahmad Bensusan In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy California Institute of Technology Pasadena, California 2011 (Defended September 27, 2010) ii © 2011 Marcos Nahmad Bensusan All Rights Reserved iii To Michelle, for her love and support iv Acknowledgments Getting involved in research on developmental biology coming from a theoretical background was not an easy task. It not only required learning new specialized language and technical expertise, but also required me to “think” in a very different way. I am grateful to many people that have made this process an enjoyable and exciting experience. First of all, I would like to thank Angela Stathopoulos, my mentor, for all her patience, support, and guidance throughout my graduate career. She not only ensured that my transition to the “bench” was a smooth process, but also taught me to “think as a biologist” throughout many hours of interesting discussions. I am also very grateful to my CDS advisor, John Doyle, for his full support and encouragement to pursue my interests in biology and for deep scientific discussions. Also, I want to express my more sincere gratitude to Arthur Lander, who agreed to come all the way from UC-Irvine every year to participate in my committee meetings. His contributions and suggestions have been very valuable. I also would like to thank my colleague, Greg Reeves, for many interesting discussions during our weekly lunch hour. Greg and I share the first authorship of the data in Chapter 4, so I would like to acknowledge his contributions to this work.
