Origami: Single-cell 3D shape dynamics oriented along the apico-basal axis of folding epithelia from fluorescence microscopy data (2021)
Journal Article
Mendonca, T., Jones, A. A., Pozo, J. M., Baxendale, S., Whitfield, T. T., & Frangi, A. F. (2021). Origami: Single-cell 3D shape dynamics oriented along the apico-basal axis of folding epithelia from fluorescence microscopy data. PLoS Computational Biology, 17(11), Article e1009063. https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pcbi.1009063

A common feature of morphogenesis is the formation of three-dimensional structures from the folding of two-dimensional epithelial sheets, aided by cell shape changes at the cellularlevel. Changes in cell shape must be studied in the context of cell-p...

Correction to: A trade-off between thickness and length in the zebra finch sperm mid-piece (2021)
Journal Article
Mendonca, T., Birkhead, T. R., Cadby, A. J., Forstmeier, W., & Hemmings, N. (2021). Correction to: A trade-off between thickness and length in the zebra finch sperm mid-piece. Proceedings of the Royal Society B: Biological Sciences, 288(1958), Article 20211695. https://doi.org/10.1098/rspb.2021.1695

The original article contains a typographical mistake in the formula notation for the volume of the sperm mitochondrial helix. In the discussion (paragraph 6), we refer to the formula as 'ν = (1/3)π(r2)T'; however, the formula used in our calculation...

Microrheology With an Anisotropic Optical Trap (2021)
Journal Article
Gibson, G. M., Dalgarno, P. A., Wright, A., Paterson, L., Mendonca, T., Matheson, A. B., & Tassier, M. (2021). Microrheology With an Anisotropic Optical Trap. Frontiers in Physics, 9, Article 621512. https://doi.org/10.3389/fphy.2021.621512

Microrheology with optical tweezers (MOT) measurements are usually performed using optical traps that are close to isotropic across the plane being imaged, but little is known about what happens when this is not the case. In this work, we investigate... Read More about Microrheology With an Anisotropic Optical Trap.

Optical Tweezers with Integrated Multiplane Microscopy (OpTIMuM): a new tool for 3D microrheology (2021)
Journal Article
Matheson, A. B., Paterson, L., Wright, A. J., Mendonca, T., Tassieri, M., & Dalgarno, P. A. (2021). Optical Tweezers with Integrated Multiplane Microscopy (OpTIMuM): a new tool for 3D microrheology. Scientific Reports, 11, Article 5614. https://doi.org/10.1038/s41598-021-85013-y

We introduce a novel 3D microrheology system that combines for the first time Optical Tweezers with Integrated Multiplane Microscopy (OpTIMuM). The system allows the 3D tracking of an optically trapped bead, with?~?20 nm accuracy along the optical ax...
