Enhanced quality factors and force sensitivity by attaching magnetic beads to cantilevers for atomic force microscopy in liquid

, 2012
Dynamic-mode atomic force microscopy (AFM) in liquid remains complicated due to the strong viscous damping of the cantilever resonance. Here we show that a high-quality resonance (Q>20) can be achieved in aqueous solution by attaching a microgram-bead at

Targeted mechanical stimulation via magnetic nanoparticles guides in vitro tissue development

Nature Communications, 2023
Tissues take shape through a series of morphogenetic movements guided by local cell-scale mechanical forces. Current in vitro approaches to recapitulate tissue mechanics rely on uncontrolled self-organization or on the imposition of extrinsic and ...
