Design principles of differentiation regulatory networks

Benjamin Pfeuty
Laboratoire de Physique des Lasers, Atomes, Molécules (PhLAM)

Cellular regulatory networks often exhibit a sophisticated architecture made of many interlocked feedback loops, even in the case of an a priori simple cellular dynamics, such as a differentiation decision switch. In this presentation, I wish to discuss the notion that the complex design of differentiation regulatory network reflects various requirements, most likely related to! the fact that the differentiation process needs be tightly coordinated with the cell-division cycle and critically depends on intercellular signaling.
