Data-driven traction force microscopy in 3D collagen hydrogels
Three-dimensional traction force microscopy (3DTFM) in fibrillar hydrogels typically models the extracellular matrix as a continuum. We present data-driven 3DTFM (DD-TFM), which reconstructs fiber net...

We built a a self-dividing synthetic cell ! Check out this #CDlab preprint on BioRxiv: www.biorxiv.org/content/10.6... Great work by 1st author Charu Sharma who encoded dynaminA in a genome and expressed that in liposomes that then divide into daughter cells! Collaboration with Koenderink lab!

Septins promote breast cancer cell invasion in 3D collagen gels by influencing actin-based protrusion formation
Septins are cytoskeletal proteins that contribute to essential cellular processes such as cell migration and cell division through interactions with the cell membrane and the cytoskeleton. High expres...
