Computational Investigation of Dynamic Properties of Actin Networks with Crosslinking Proteins

Due to the increasing recognition of the role that force plays in biological processes, a new field, mechanobiology, has recently emerged. One aspect of this is the need to gain a physical understanding of the viscoelastic properties of the cytoskeleton. Numerous studies, both in living cells and in...
