Working Paper
Mendonca, T., Lis-Slimak, K., Matheson, A. B., Smith, M. G., Anane-Adjei, A. B., Cavanagh, R., …Wright, A. J. OptoRheo: Simultaneous in situ micro-mechanical sensing and 3D imaging of live cell cultures

Biomechanical cues from the extracellular matrix (ECM) are essential for directing many cellular processes, from normal development and repair, to disease progression. To better understand cell-matrix interactions, we have developed a new instrument... Read More about OptoRheo: Simultaneous in situ micro-mechanical sensing and 3D imaging of live cell cultures.

Microrheology reveals microscale viscosity gradients in planktonic systems (2020)
Working Paper
Guadayol, Ò., Mendonca, T., Segura-Noguera, M., Wright, A. J., Tassieri, M., & Humphries, S. Microrheology reveals microscale viscosity gradients in planktonic systems

Microbial activity in planktonic systems creates a dynamic and heterogeneous microscale seascape that harbours a diverse community of microorganisms and ecological interactions of global significance. In recent decades a great effort has been put int... Read More about Microrheology reveals microscale viscosity gradients in planktonic systems.
