DESCRIPTION:Abstract:\n\nInternal stresses are omnipresent in materials. Th
 ey usually arise during synthesis when parts of the material expand or con
 tract. In growing tissues\, contractile cells put the surrounding extracel
 lular matrix under substantial loads\, thereby generating internal stresse
 s that help shaping the organ. Internal stresses can also arise when parts
  of the material are swelling by water absorption or desorption through os
 motic effects\, a process very common in plants. The lecture will review r
 ecent experiments and modeling results on how internal stresses play a cru
 cial role in tissue shaping by growth or by swelling.\n
