Cellular mechanotransduction, a critical regulator of numerous biological processes, is the
conversion from mechanical signals to biochemical signals regarding cell activities and …

Mechanobiology is a rapidly growing research area focused on how mechanical forces and
properties influence biological systems at the cell, molecular, and tissue level, and how …

Lying at the intersection between engineering and biology, mechanobiology is a nascent
field of study that investigates adaptation of the structure and behavior of tissues in response …

Aging is a chronic, complicated process that leads to degenerative physical and biological
changes in living organisms. Aging is associated with permanent, gradual physiological …

An emerging field at the interface of biology and engineering, mechanobiology explores the
mechanisms by which cells sense and respond to mechanical signals—and holds great …

All cells sense and integrate mechanical and biochemical cues from their environment to
orchestrate organismal development and maintain tissue homeostasis …

It has long been thought that the effectiveness and efficiency of physical therapy would
improve if our understanding of the cell biology/biochemistry that participates in mechanics …

The initial concept for Mechanobiology Handbook spawned from the insightful vision of a
CRC Press editor, Michael Slaughter, who found potential in the growth of this field and took …

Mechanotransduction is a strictly regulated process whereby mechanical stimuli, including
