      Mechanobiology focuses on the effects of the structural micro-environment and force-induced deformations on molecules, cells and tissues. At MBI, we are exploring mechano-transduction though four major research programs:

      • Molecular Mechanisms of Mechanotransduction
      • Cell-Matrix and Cell-Cell Mechanotransduction
      • Mechanotransduction in Tissues
      • Technology Innovation for Mechanobiology
    • Faculty and Researchers
      The Mechanobiology Institute is committed to developing better ways to bring together the multi-disciplinary expertise that is needed to understand the systems biology of mechanical functions.
