This EMBO Workshop on Forces Across Scales will provide an integrative perspective on mechanobiology, a rapidly advancing field that examines how mechanical forces shape biological systems across mol…

In this Comment, we direct attention to initial efforts to establish a high-quality databank of atomic force microscopy (AFM) data: bioAFM-DB. We outline the state of this endeavor, its challenges, an...

Trigger Factor (TF) is a primary ATP-independent molecular chaperone in bacteria that engages nascent polypeptide chains emerging from the ribosomal exit tunnel to assist their folding. However, the r...

Loretan and colleagues present a low-cost smartphone-based microscope capable of detecting single-molecule fluorescence. This approach opens doors to personalised and widely distributed applications in diagnostics, biosensing, and science education.

The dissociation of the streptavidin-biotin (SA-b) bond has been widely characterized using bulk and single molecule force spectroscopy (SMFS) techniques. However, the dissociation rates ( k off) from...
