Abstract: Understanding how cells position themselves correctly in multicellular environments is a fundamental challenge in developmental biology. We use the invariable embryogenesis of C. elegans and a modelling approach to better understand the underlying mechanisms driving cellular movements. We developed a simulator to model the...

Due to its complexity and the impact of the human host, it is hard to obtain a mechanistic understanding of the gut microbial community from sequencing data alone. Synthetic communities are an excellent tool to complement in vivo studies. Their dynamics can be accurately monitored...
