Neuronal Mechanics

Neuronal Mechanics is a theoretical framework that characterizes the mechanical properties and dynamic responses of neurons to physical forces, distinguishing it from broader neurbiological models by focusing on the quantification of structural deformability, force generation, and mechanotransduction specific to neuronal cells.
