Microparticle traction force microscopy reveals subcellular force exertion patterns in immune cell–target interactions
Traction force microscopy is an effective method for measuring cellular forces but it is limited by planar geometry. Here the authors develop a facile method to produce deformable hydrogel particles and a reference-free computational method to resolve surface traction forces from particle shape defo...
