The quest to understand how the mechanical and geometrical environment of cells impacts their behaviour and fate has been a major force driving the recent development of new technologies in cell biology research. Despite rapid advances in this field, many challenges remain in order to bridge the gap...
Membrane deformation by one-dimensional (1D) wetting, a physical process driven by the interaction of the plasma membrane with adhesive nanofibers, triggers the formation of filopodium-like plasma membrane protrusions. In these protrusions, F-actin reorganization occurs after membrane deformation. H...
