Center on Probes for Molecular Mechanotechnology
@cpmm24.bsky.social
We're an NIH-funded center that develops and optimizes technologies to enable the study of mechanobiology and mechanotransduction pathways in living cells. Primarily based out of Emory University but have collaborators globally!
Friendly reminder that this seminar is taking place this Thursday, 12pm EST on Zoom, see you all there!
We are excited for our next talk in the Forces at Play: Molecular Mechanobiology Seminar Series with Dr. Bianxiao Cui from Stanford University on Thursday, November 13th at 12pm EST on Zoom. Please see the flyer for more information. We hope to see you all virtually!
