By the end of this webinar, attendees will be equipped with the knowledge and confidence to overcome any initial fears surrounding mechanics and to track the complex interplay of mechanobiology into their own research workflows.
Key Topics:
What is Mechanobiology? Understanding the fundamental interaction between mechanical forces and biological processes (examples in the field of fibrosis and cancer research).
The Fear Factor: Why you Shouldn’t Be Afraid of Mechanics. Why mechanics might feel intimidating in biological research. How physics plays a role in understanding cell behavior and tissue properties.
The Benefits of Mechanobiology. Stiffness as a label-free biomarker. How Mechanics can fill the dots in your research.
Overcoming the Fear: How to Simplify and Integrate the Process in your Workflow. Making mechanics user-friendly with the high-throughput Pavone platform. Step-by-step: Picking, measuring, and analyzing samples with minimal effort.
Data Output: Understand the Findings. What you will get from mechanobiology experiments. Easy, automated modeling and fitting: How to use the data to enhance your research.
Applications of Mechanobiology in Biomedical Research. How mechanobiology contributes to tissue regeneration, disease modeling, and drug discovery with examples from literature.
This webinar is open to all biologists, regardless of their level of experience in mechanics. Explore mechanical tests in physiologically relevant microenvironment.
