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 https://t.co/I4ijLVUyHj
Are you a young PI working in mechanobiology? You should apply for this award. Organized by the #Mechanobiology Subgroup @BiophysicalSoc.

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: https://t.co/rPrmgJWMtD @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 https://t.co/ETbkOYc7N3
