Mechanotransduction: Progress in Molecular Biology and Translational Science, cartea 126

Adam J. Engler, Sanjay Kumar
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 30 iul 2014
Progress in Molecular Biology and Translational Science provides a forum for discussion of new discoveries, approaches, and ideas in molecular biology. It contains contributions from leaders in their fields and abundant references.
Volume 126 features in-depth reviews that focus on the tools required to investigate mechanotransduction. Additional chapters focus on how we can use these tools to answer fundamental questions about the interaction of physical forces with cell biology, morphogenesis, and function of mature structures. Chapters in the volume are authored by a unique combination of cell biologists and engineers, providing a range of perspectives on mechanotransduction.


  • Provides a unique combination of perspectives from biologists and engineers
  • Engaging to people of many training backgrounds

Recenzii

Praise for the series:"Full of interest not only for the molecular biologist-for whom the numerous references will be invaluable-but will also appeal to a much wider circle of biologists, and in fact to all those who are concerned with the living cell." --British Medical Journal
