Mechanosignalling is a key understudied aspect of tissue regeneration. To understand how cells respond to physical and mechanical cues, and how this contributes to the restoration of an injured and/or de-novo growing tis…
sue, specialized devices capable of accurately measuring tissue mechanical properties are indispensable. Instruments such as nanoindenters are capable to accurately measure tissue mechanical properties across locations and experimental time points, thus allowing to map the biomechanical environment
in a regenerating tissue. As a cardiac regeneration group studying the relevance of mechanical forces in the modulation of cardiac tissue restoration, we are working with a variety of materials and models such as cell-like force sensors, ex
