This EMBO Workshop will discuss cell fate decisions during the transition from pluripotency to lineage commitment in early development, the interactions of stem cells with their niches during lineage specification, and the spatiotemporal control of cell identity during the differentiation of somatic lineages and the germline. The complex multi-tissue interactions in embryoids and organoids will be discussed as experimental models for the understanding of patterning in the embryo, tissue morphogenesis and organogenesis. Mathematical modelling approaches will address how quantitative physical principles can help understand cell decision making. New insights into regenerative biology will be presented by investigating responses to tissue damage or loss and the developmental kinetics leading to aberrant phenotypes.
