Self-organization drives symmetry-breaking, scaling, and critical growth transitions in stem cell-derived organoids
Daniel Aguilar-Hidalgo, Joel Ostblom, M Mona Siu +8
The emergence of spatial patterns and organized growth is a hallmark of developing tissues. While symmetry-breaking and scaling laws govern these processes, how cells coordinate sp…

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…
