DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Arndt Siekmann\nhosted by Carl-Philipp Heisenberg\nAbs
 tract: The vasculature is the first organ system to function during embryo
 genesis and is important for the distribution of oxygen and nutrients to a
 ll parts of the body. It consists of a ramified network of tubes of differ
 ent sizes optimized for efficient liquid transport. The heart pumps the bl
 ood through the arterial side of this network into the body's periphery be
 fore it is being returned via the venous circulation. I will present our r
 ecent results on artery formation with an emphasis on the question how hie
 rarchical blood vessel structures are being generated. I will furthermore 
 discuss how physical forces\, such as blood flow mediated shear stress\, i
 nteract with genetic pathways on the cellular level in order to ensure opt
 imal blood vessel sizes. Together\, our data suggest that self-organizing 
 principles underlie developmental blood vessel patterning.
