Force propagation between epithelial cells depends on active coupling and mechano-structural polarization

This study shows that force propagation between epithelial cells depends on active coupling and mechano-structural polarization, with stronger responses when polarization is perpendicular to force direction.

Light-driven biological actuators to probe the rheology of 3D microtissues

This study uses light to control cell contractility in 3D microtissues to measure their mechanical properties and anisotropy.
