Functional modules from variable genes: Leveraging percolation to analyze noisy, high-dimensional data
Steffen Werner, W Mathijs Rozemuller, Annabel Ebbing +7
While measurement advances now allow extensive surveys of gene activity (large numbers of genes across many samples), interpretation of these data is often confounded by noise -- e…
Critical Point in Self-Organized Tissue Growth
Daniel Aguilar Hidalgo, Steffen Werner, Ortrud Wartlick +3
We present a theory of pattern formation in growing domains inspired by biological examples of tissue development. Gradients of signaling molecules regulate growth, while growth ch…
Growth and Scaling during Development and Regeneration
Steffen Werner
Life presents fascinating examples of self-organization and emergent phenomena. In multi-cellular organisms, a multitude of cells interact to form and maintain highly complex body…
Scaling and regeneration of self-organized patterns
Steffen Werner, Tom Stückemann, Manuel Beirán Amigo +3
Biological patterns generated during development and regeneration often scale with organism size. Some organisms, e.g., flatworms, can regenerate a rescaled body plan from tissue f…
Shape mode analysis exposes movement patterns in biology: flagella and flatworms as case studies
Steffen Werner, Jochen C. Rink, Ingmar H. Riedel-Kruse +1
We illustrate shape mode analysis as a simple, yet powerful technique to concisely describe complex biological shapes and their dynamics. We characterize undulatory bending waves o…
