Tractions exerted by cells on the extracellular matrix (ECM) are critical in many important biological processes such as morphogenesis, wound healing, and cancer metastasis. Three-dimensional Traction Microscopy (3DTM) is a robust tool to quantify cellular tractions by first measuring the...

Materials scientists studying processing-microstructure-property relationships dream of knowing how the processing influences the exact location of each atom in a material and how that impacts its properties. Such detailed understanding of material microstructure can inform novel solid phase material processing...

The dramatic increases of data storage densities over the last 60 years and the corresponding decrease in cost has helped drive the modern digital world. However as many of the critical dimensions approach the nanometer scale, a variety of physical...
