How can we predict the quantitative outcome of self-organization from the measurable properties of cellular building blocks? How do neighboring tissues canalize self-organization towards complex and reproducible endpoints? What are generalizable principles that we can use to engineer self-organization to improve health and fight disease? I will discuss recent studies from my group shedding light on these questions and describe new technologies and analysis tools facilitating our efforts.\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003EBIO\u003Cbr\u003EThe Gartner laboratory is working to understand how cells self-organize into tissues, how the structure of tissues help regulate cell behaviors, and how tissue structure breaks down in diseases like cancer. By understanding these processes we hope to reveal general principles contributing to cancer progression, to speed the development of new drugs, and to develop new strategies for regenerative medicine. To accomplish these goals we build, perturb, and model human tissues in vitro using techniques from the chemical, physical, and biological sciences.\u003C\/p\u003E","summary":"","format":"limited_html"}],"field_subtitle":"","field_summary":[{"value":"\u003Cp\u003E\u0022Building Tissues to Understand how Tissues Build Themselves\u0022 - Zev Gartner, University of California, San Francisco\u003C\/p\u003E","format":"limited_html"}],"field_summary_sentence":[{"value":"\u0022Building Tissues to Understand how Tissues Build Themselves\u0022 - Zev Gartner, University of California, San Francisco"}],"uid":"27195","created_gmt":"2024-09-09 14:02:42","changed_gmt":"2025-09-08 18:31:26","author":"Colly Mitchell","boilerplate_text":"","field_publication":"","field_article_url":"","field_event_time":{"event_time_start":"2025-10-14T11:00:00-04:00","event_time_end":"2025-10-14T12:00:00-04:00","event_time_end_last":"2025-10-14T12:00:00-04:00","gmt_time_start":"2025-10-14 15:00:00","gmt_time_end":"2025-10-14 16:00:00","gmt_time_end_last":"2025-10-14 16:00:00","rrule":null,"timezone":"America\/New_York"},"location":"Petit Biotechnology Building, 315 Ferst Drive, NW, Suddath Seminar Room 1128, Atlanta, GA 30332","extras":[],"groups":[{"id":"1292","name":"Parker H.
