The Stressed Cell As A Physical Aging Problem
Statistical Physics Provides Insight Into Stressed-Cell Statescells Comprise Highly Complex Microenvironments, With Multiple Interactions Taking Place Simultaneously Between All Components. This Makes The Application Of Statistical Methods To Evaluate Cell Behaviour Increasingly Difficult. The Eu-Funded Statcell Project Aims To Overcome This Challenge By Introducing An Experimental And Theoretical Framework For The Statistical Physics Description Of Cells Under Acute Stress. Combining Cutting-Edge Cell Biology Techniques, Statcell Will Allow The Identification Of Those Cellular Network Conditions That Can Be Quantitatively Predicted By A Statistical Physics Framework. The Project’S Work Will Provide Significant Insight Into Cellular Mechanisms In Ageing And Disease.
