Designed for frontline forces operating in dynamic and contested environments, Vector AI supports advanced intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance (ISR) capabilities with autonomous mission ...

Biomedical researchers have decoded how mechanical forces drive cell behavior in fibrosis. The cells in human bodies are subject to both chemical and mechanical forces. But up until recently ...

He speculated that a mechanical process might underlie their formation. Testing this theory was a long and arduous journey, since it’s not easy to get access to crocodiles for experiments. It took the ...

Mechanical stimuli, such as stretch, shear stress, or compression, activate a range of biomolecular responses through cellular mechanotransduction. In the nervous system, studies on mechanical stress ...

Despite the importance of mechanical loading in tendon homeostasis and pathophysiology, the molecular responses involved in the mechanotransduction in tendon cells remain unclear. In this study, we ...
