The biomechanical properties of cells and their microenvironment determine cellular functions such as adhesion and motility under physiological and pathological conditions. The focus of this Research ...

Giant's TCR came earlier this year, Colnago has pretty much overhauled its entire range in the past 18 months, and even Trek has a new bike on the way. The Wilier Verticale SLR, therefore, has a lot ...

Purpose: Foot adaptation in the typically developed foot is well explored. In this study, we aimed to explore the form and function of an atypical foot, the Chinese bound foot, which had a history of ...

Over the past two decades, structural biology has provided much insight into the shape of membrane proteins. Beyond shape, however, membrane protein function can also depend on the protein’s elastic ...

Soft, slippery surfaces have gained increasing attention because of their wide range of potential applications, for example in biomaterials, self-cleaning, antifouling, liquid collection, and more.

Right ventricular (RV) diastolic function has been associated with outcomes for patients with pulmonary hypertension; however, the relationship between biomechanics and hemodynamics in the right ...

A number of essential processes in biology and materials science, such as vesicle fusion and fission as well as pore formation, change the membrane topology and require formation of saddle surfaces.
