Physics of adherent cells

One of the most unique physical features of cell adhesion to external surfaces is the active generation of mechanical force at the cell-material interface. This includes pulling forces generated by contractile polymer bundles and networks, and pushing forces generated by the polymerization of polymer networks. Topics covered includes: Physics of cell-matrix adhesions, Cell shape and forces, Active response of cells, Cell assemblies
