This four-day workshop, led by experts in cellular mechanics and metabolism from institutions including the AIRC Institute of Molecular Oncology, Institut Curie, and The Institute of Cancer Research, explores the intricate relationship between mechanical forces and cellular metabolism. Through a combination of theoretical and practical sessions, the workshop will focus on how mechanical forces shape cellular metabolic processes and how metabolic reprogramming, in turn, influences cellular mechanics.

Participants will engage in discussions on the integration of mechanical forces and metabolism across various biological scales, from organelles to tissues and systemic organismal responses. The programme is designed to foster interdisciplinary collaborations across cell biology, biophysics, and immunology to accelerate discoveries in this emerging field.

The event is aimed at researchers working on cellular mechanics, metabolism, or related fields with a strong interest in cross-disciplinary approaches. Ideal participants will have experience in biophysics, cellular biology, or theoretical physics.

Topics covered include:

 Applications, including a CV and a letter of support, are due by 13 December 2024.
