  Modelling the deformation of cells
Aberdeen University Department of Physics
  Dr F Perez-Reche
Applications accepted all year round
Cells are the elementary building blocks of living organisms. The correct functioning of living organisms is therefore conditioned to the ability of living cells to withstand forces and deformations and to promptly adapt to their mechanical environment.
