Ali Naji

Title: Swimming in shear flow: Rheo-/chemotactic behavior of active particles in confinement
Abstract:
Life, as we know it, represents a complex, robust and, at the same time, an extremely fine-tuned organization of molecules and molecular processes that make use of stored and/or ambient free energy (and, as such, they are often referred to as ‘active’ processes), driving themselves into a hierarchy of nonequilibrium spatiotemporal forms known as the living matter...

Amir Sanati-Nezhad
Assistant Professor of Mechanical and Biomedical Eng/ University of Calgary
Title: The nexus of computational and experimental models of tumor microenvironment
Abstract:
Emerging evidence shows that endothelial cells are not only the building blocks of vascular networks that enable oxygen and nutrient delivery throughout a tissue but they also serve as a rich resource of angiocrine factors. The endothelial cells, in terms of cancer, play key roles in determining cancer progression and response to anti-cancer drugs. Furthermore, the endothelium-specific deposition of extracellular matrix is a key modulator of the availability of angiocrine factors to both stromal and cancer cells...
