π¬ INTRODUCING BIOMEDICAL ENGINEERINGπ§ͺ
We've created a brand-new page to share events, successes & updates from our community here at BME at University of Strathclyde!
We've delved into the archives to show you some vintage BME snapshots and history...
Our very own beautifully talented PhD student, Lorna @lornahm.bsky.social, has won the Institute of Physics and Engineering in Medicine (IPEM) award for the best MSc project for her work on βActive Nematics in Biological Systemsβ, completed during her masterβs with us. π±

βBy all means break the rules, and break them beautifully, deliberately, and well.β
- Robert Bringhurst
Letβs break them together! @lornahm.bsky.social
Looking forward to next year!! π€©

Hi! I'm Max. I'm developing a #biophysical model of #microtubules in #neurons during #development. The model is based on my surprising experimental finding (lots of live-cell imaging) that the entire microtubule array in neurites flows retrogradely into the soma: www.science.org/doi/10.1126/... π§ͺ π§ π

Cells are strong & generate forces while interacting with their environment.
Traction Force Microscopy has been instrumental in measuring these forces, revealing the underlying mechanics. Let's explore pioneering papers in this π§΅by @onenimesa.bsky.social & @juliaeckert.bsky.social
This is a movie of actin filaments in a cultured cell. I like watching it and I hope you do to.
