Development of a device for multi-modal mechanical manipulation of cells in 2D and 3D engineering environment
All organisms from bacteria to cells within the human body experience some form of mechanical stimuli. The biochemical response from mechanical stimuli is known as mechanotransduction. Cell manipulation devices provide an understanding of mechanotransduction and the various signalling mechanisms tha...
