OxTalks is Changing
OxTalks will soon move to the new Halo platform and will become 'Oxford Events.' There will be a need for an OxTalks freeze. This was previously planned for Friday 14th November – a new date will be shared as soon as it is available (full details will be available on the Staff Gateway).
In the meantime, the OxTalks site will remain active and events will continue to be published.
If staff have any questions about the Oxford Events launch, please contact halo@digital.ox.ac.uk
Inference of stem cell and tissue dynamics in development and regeneration
The dynamics of a tissue in development or regeneration arises from the behaviour of its constituent cells and their interactions. We use mathematical models and inference from experimental data to to infer the likely cellular behaviours underlying changing tissue states. In this talk I will show examples of how we apply canonical birth-death process models to novel experimental data, how we are extending such models with volume exclusion and multistate dynamics, and how we attempt to more generally learn cell-cell interaction models directly from data in interpretable ways. The applications range from in vitro models of embryo development to in vivo blood regeneration that is disrupted with ageing.
