Chemomechanics with a molecular force probe
… motion at multiple length scales—from molecular to macroscopic. To explain the up to quadrillion-fold variations in reaction rates in multiscale phenomena—which are incompatible within the standard models of chemical kinetics—chemomechanics relies on the concept of molecular restoring …

Rate dependent rupture of solid-supported phospholipid bilayers.
… order to investigate rate-dependent behavior of force and probability of bilayer rupture. 1-palmitoyl-2-oleoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine (POPC) solid-supported lipid bilayers were created on mica using vesicle fusion technique and then ruptured normal to the surface using a silicon nitride …

Upstream Migration Under Shear Flow: Force Generation and Molecular Regulation
… Despite the centrality of mechanical force to this process, the forces upstream-migrating cells generate at the cell-substrate interface have not been directly measured during sustained upstream migration, and the molecular machinery responsible for producing them remains …
