Track 14 : Signalling and Cellular Decision Making

Cells sense environmental stimuli and use these to initiate appropriate physiological responses. Cells receive signals, perform detection and transduction with its biochemistry, and grow and die in the cell-environments. Understanding the cellular information processing in healthy and diseased states and engineering it through synthetic biology requires better insights into the relationship between different interaction motifs found in signalling networks and their potential roles in the ensuing system dynamics.
