Cellular sensing in a disordered environment
from ResearchPod · host ResearchPod
Dr Farzan Beroz developed a physical theory of sensing that predicts cell behaviour. Cells are continuously exposed to mechanical stimuli from their surroundings, causing stresses that can guide cell behaviours throughout development, movement and healing. To ensure normal function, the bodies cells and their microenvironment constantly engage in a reciprocal and dynamic dialogue with one another - Mechanosensing.Dr Beroz' findings establish a model of cell behaviour and inspire novel ways to engineer high precision sensors.
