MBI

Decoding the living machine

At the Mechanobiology Institute, National University of Singapore, our goal is to develop the world’s leading centre for mechanobiology research and education. Our research aims to interrogate biological systems from a physical and mechanical perspective at the molecular, cellular, and tissue level, with the eventual goal to leverage basic science discoveries in mechanobiology into biomedical innovations.
