Cell mechanics is the field of study that looks at how cells
detect, modify, and respond to the physical properties of the cell
environment. Cells communicate with each other through chemical and
physical signals which are involved in a range of process from
embryogenesis and wound healing to pathological conditions such as
cancerous invasion. Similar principles are also likely to be
critical for success in regenerative medicine. Cell mechanics is
thus central to understanding these principles. As cell mechanics
draws from the fields of biology, chemistry, physics, engineering,
and mathematics, this book aims not only to provide a collection of
research methods, but also to develop a common language among
scientists who share the interest in cell mechanics but enter the
field with diverse backgrounds. To this end all of the contributing
authors have sought to explain in plain language the nature of the
biological problems, the rationale for the approaches, in addition
to the methods themselves. In addition, to balance practical
utility against conceptual advances, the book has intentionally
included both chapters that provide detailed recipes and those that
emphasize basic principles.
