One of the most important questions\ , never asked as often as it should be\, is “where do chemotactic gradient s come from?” We have used an interactive process of modelling and wet exp eriments to show that cells very often participate in making the same grad ients that they respond to. We show how this is important in cancer spread \, standard chemotaxis assays\, and other scenarios where we had thought c hemotaxis was simple. In particular\, cells can extract a remarkable amoun t of information about their environments by breaking down attractants.\n \nThis seminar will be given online via Zoom. Details in attached poster. \n DTSTART:20210917T150000Z DTEND:20210917T160000Z SUMMARY:Online Seminar: Making your way - how cells steer themselves to sol ve mazes or spread cancer URL:/physiology/channels/event/online-seminar-making-y our-way-how-cells-steer-themselves-solve-mazes-or-spread-cancer-331891 END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
