Cellular Mechanobiology in Health & Disease: A Tour de Force

5.11.2024

sketchnote of a talk delivered by Carsten Schulte at teh CeMi smeinar talking about mechanotransduction in cells adherent to a variety of different substrates. Interesting points on the importance of teh glycocalix for the perception of nanotopographies in particular. Future research ideas going forward with a wide array of local partners


Some of the papers mentioned in the talk:

We chatted and ended up talking about Roger Tsien's idea that perineural nets may store long term memories. Paper or rather an abandoned grant application 2013 in PNAS.
