Decoding the interplay between genes and mechanics in tissues at single-cell resolution

Researchers at the Kennedy Institute have developed a new computational framework that allows simultaneous analysis of gene expression and mechanical forces within cells and tissues, uncovering insights into how the interplay between transcriptional and mechanical signals guides processes such as cell fate decisions or the formation of spatially distinct tissue compartments. Researchers at the Kennedy Institute have developed a new computational framework that allows simultaneous analysis of gene expression and mechanical forces within cells and tissues, uncovering insights into how the interplay between transcriptional and mechanical signals guides processes such as cell fate decisions or the formation of spatially distinct tissue compartments. Cell & Microbiology Molecular & Computational biology Phys.org – latest science and technology news stories
