AFM feedback

How does the AFM work?

We have prepared several instructional animations, which show how feedback settings work in contact mode imaging, and how protein tracking works.

Stiff sample

How does Force Mapping work?

We have prepared several instructional animations, which show how force curves are recorded on stiff and soft samples, and how force mapping works on cells.

Brownian motion

Brownian Motion

A microscopy video showing the Brownian Motion a small spheres.

Cell division

Cell Division

We have investigated the mechanics of cell division and showed that stiffening of the cleavage furrow preceeds the onset of division.

Cell migration

Cell migration

We were able to directly measure the protrusion forces of migrating Keratocytes by placing a flexible abstracle in the path of locomoting cells.

Amoeba

Life in a water droplet

By adding some fresh grass or hay to water, we can cultivate many different organisms, like amoeba, paramecian etc.
