Mechanobiology has fascinated biologists and physicists alike for more than a decade. Here we plan to address an important current challenge, namely how to bridge the molecular and cellular scales in the context of immune cell mechanosensing, which is thought to be at the heart of immune response.
The different scales, in time and space, in the molecules and their organization, aside of the variety of immune cell types for which mechanosensing could be crucial, make it a very rich domain which starts to gather researchers from many different fields, from theoreticians to experimentalists, from mathematician to medical doctors.
This meeting is the frame of Les Houches School of Physics.
