Cell Migration and Invasion in Physiology and Pathology
Meeting - Nijmegen, the Netherlands
The conference will focus on cell adhesion, cell motility and invasion in health and pathology. Leading scientists in the field will discuss cellular adhesion and migration along with different migratory adhesive structures and strategies of motility during pathological conditions such as cancer or inflammation. A special emphasis will be on three-dimensional invasion strategies and in vivo invasion models. Unlike previous meetings of this series, the meeting will have a new session focusing on morphogenesis and tissue remodeling as well as a unique “out of the box” session dealing with novel quantitative imaging technologies (including systems biology analysis, tissue engineering, automated approaches and advanced microscopy techniques). Topics will include i) Multi-dimentional migration and invasion – in vivo models; ii) Cellular migratory strategies (focal adhesions/invadopodia); iii) Adhesion and migration in inflammation response; iv) Cellular responses to mechanical stimuli; v) Tissue remodeling and morphogenesis and vi) Novel quantitative technologies.
