Mechanobiology: From Molecular Sensing to Disease

Will provide a review of the current state of understanding of mechanobiology and its role in health and disease. It covers:

  • Current understanding of the main molecular pathways by which cells sense and respond to mechanical stimuli
  • A review of diseases that with known or purported mechanobiological underpinnings
  • The role of mechanobiology in tissue engineering and regenerative medicine
  • Experimental methods to capture mechanobiological phenomena
  • Computational models in mechanobiology

Presenting our current understanding of the main molecular pathways by which cells sense and respond to mechanical stimuli

Providing a review of diseases with known or purported mechanobiological underpinnings

Including the role of mechanobiology in tissue engineering and regenerative medicine

Covering experimental methods to capture mechanobiological phenomena
