NewsResearch team develop nano-sized force sensor and improve high-precision microscopy
In many cases, cells are very active in their movement and serve as power generators. The ability of cells to produce physical forces is one of the basic functions of the body. When running, for example, the forces generated in the cells cause the muscles to contract and the breath ...
