Mechanical reception in which living organs feel “force” and “deformation” serves as the basis for important senses such as senses of touch, hearing and balances. In recent years, it became known that mechanical reception affects various biological functions, such as cellular differentiation, leading to the creation of a new academic field called mechanobiology. Our laboratory is conducting research on mechanisms in which cells sense mechanical stimulations, received information is processed and movements are controlled based on the information.
