It has taken a while but finally synthetic hydrogels are ready to explore the complex cell & tissue mechanics! A must-read!

NK92 immune cell migrating through a collagen matrix. Note the large traction forces right when the cell passes through a narrow pore. Immune cells can generate traction forces with magnitudes comparable to mesenchymal cells. Read more at doi.org/10.1101/2022.11.16.5…

Ever wondered how to measure the visco-elastic frequency-dependent mechanical properties of cells at high throughput? Without expensive equipment? Check out our shear flow deformation cytometer, just published in @eLife: doi.org/10.7554/eLife.78823 @UniFAU

Under laminar fluid shear, cells deform elliptically, align in flow direction, and rotate. From this, we can infer the frequency-dependent viscoelastic cell properties - quantitatively, accurately, and with high throughput of ~100 cells/sec. bioRxiv biorxiv.org/cgi/content/shor…

I was one of those who started simulating cell behavior in Fortran... what a tedious work! 😅 nature.com/articles/d41586-0…

I am starting to believe that I am a lousy supervisor – a 2nd PhD student who worked on an admittedly difficult project just quitted. If you are interested in biofabrication and feel invincible – please apply bio.physik.fau.de/jobs/
