This study shows that stretching supported lipid bilayers with phase separation leads to homogenization, consistent with a second-order phase transition, indicating membrane tension regulates lateral organization.

This study investigates ventilator-induced lung injury in a rat model using ex-vivo imaging and mechanical analysis, finding that fibrotic lungs show reduced airspace enlargement compared to healthy lungs after injurious ventilation.

This study investigates the mechanical role of keratin cortex in epithelial cells by comparing keratin-deficient and wild-type cells under strain.
