text: 'The way in which interactions between mechanics and biochemistry lead to
the emergence of complex cell and tissue organization is an old question that
has recently attracted renewed interest from biologists, physicists, mathematicians
and computer scientists. Rapid advances in optical physics, microscopy and computational
image analysis have greatly enhanced our ability to observe and quantify spatiotemporal
patterns of signalling, force generation, deformation, and flow in living cells
and tissues. Powerful new tools for genetic, biophysical and optogenetic manipulation
are allowing us to perturb the underlying machinery that generates these patterns
in increasingly sophisticated ways. Rapid advances in theory and computing have
made it possible to construct predictive models that describe how cell and tissue
organization and dynamics emerge from the local coupling of biochemistry and mechanics.
Together, these advances have opened up a wealth of new opportunities to explore
how mechanochemical patterning shapes organismal development. In this roadmap,
we present a series of forward-looking case studies on mechanochemical patterning
in development, written by scientists working at the interface between the physical
and biological sciences, and covering a wide range of spatial and temporal scales,
organisms, and modes of development. Together, these contributions highlight the
many ways in which the dynamic coupling of mechanics and biochemistry shapes biological
dynamics: from mechanoenzymes that sense force to tune their activity and motor
output, to collectives of cells in tissues that flow and redistribute biochemical
signals during development.'
