DOI: 10.1088/1361-6439/ab3183
Abstract: Most of the blood cells exhibit a natural deformation capability. Specifically, Red Blood Cells (RBCs) are characterized by their great ability to deform and squeeze through microcapillary vessels, even with strict restrictions, recovering their shape… read more here.

DOI: 10.1088/1478-3975/aac3ba
Abstract: Mechanical properties of cells are shown to regulate cell behaviors leading to phenotypic changes that may aid in the development and progression of disease. In this study, we used atomic force microscopy (AFM) indentation with… read more here.
