About

    Mechanobiology is a field of study that investigates how physical forces and mechanical properties influence biological processes within cells, tissues, and organisms. It focuses on understanding how cells and tissues respond to mechanical cues, such as forces, stiffness, and stretching, and how these responses affect cellular functions, including growth, differentiation, migration, and signaling. Mechanobiology plays a crucial role in various biological processes, including development, tissue regeneration, and disease progression, and has applications in tissue engineering, regenerative medicine, and drug development.
