This project explores how physical forces influence cellular processes, particularly in viscoelastic environments. By engineering hydrogels with adjustable properties, it aims to study fibroblast behavior and mechanotransduction, providing insights relevant to cancer research and tissue engineering.
Mechanobiology explores how physical forces affect cellular processes, providing insights into areas like embryogenesis and tumor growth.
While most studies focus on cells responding to forces stemming from elastic materials, biological materials are viscoelastic.
Single materials elastically resist deformation while viscously relaxing with a multitude of relaxation times.
Whereas viscoelasticity is increasingly acknowledged in mechanobiology research, its effects on cell behaviour remain poorly…
