Multicellular Systems
Multicellular Systems research at FMI
From single cells to organs
By studying multicellular systems, FMI scientists identify molecular and cellular mechanisms by which tissues, organs and organisms are assembled, preserved or destabilized. Advanced model systems will permit molecular phenotyping, and comprehensive and targeted perturbation. This approach will help to understand how healthy and pathological states develop and how tissues regenerate. It will also open up new avenues for instructing these processes in disease.
