Preface The XIV ~ seminar of the French Society for Theoretical Biology was held for the second time in Saint Flour, France, on June 1994. This issue contains most of the contributions made during this meeting. As usual, this 1994 seminar was left open to miscellaneous communications, but discussions about specific areas of theoretical and mathematical biology have been suggested by inciting contributions on two themes, namely "Metabolism and cell dynamics " and "Spatial organisation and cell-extracellular medium interactions". The first part of this volume contains papers devoted to these themes, while other contributions, dealing mainly with aggregation methods and mathematical models in population dynamics, are presented in the second part. Papers in the first part provide more evidence that results found at the molecular level have to be balanced with observations of individual and collective cell behaviour. Among the contributions presented, dynamic relationships are outlined between DNA organisation and cell locomotion, pH variation and vesicle migration during pinocytosis, response pattern to a mechanical stimulation in a neuronal network, chaotic patterns in cardiac arrhythmias after local or global ischemia, bone mineralisation and cell transduction of mechanical constraints, cell proliferation and tissue organisation in normal situations or during carcinogenesis.
