Movements and habits of plants and axons | Alain Goriely

The shape, motion, and behaviour of plants have been a central theme of research dating back to the early classification of Linnaeus and the first mechanistic explanations of plant tropism in the 18th Century. In this talk, Prof. Alain Goriely explains a general mathematical theory of tropism that takes multiple stimuli and shows how they drive tissue-level growth and remodelling, thus modifying the plant shape and position with respect to the stimuli. The Linnean Society works to inform, involve and inspire people of all ages about nature and its wider interactions through our collections, programmes and publications. Founded in 1788, the Society takes its name from the Swedish naturalist Carl Linnaeus (1707–1778). https://www.linnean.org Follow us on social media:   / linneansociety     / linneansociety     / linneansociety
