BioFlow: a non-invasive, image-based method to measure speed, pressure and forces inside living cells

Abstract Cell motility is governed by a complex molecular machinery that converts physico-chemical cues into whole-cell movement. Understanding the underlying biophysical mechanisms requires the ability to measure physical quantities inside the cell in a simple, reproducible and preferably non-invas...
