MECHANOBIOLOGY INSTITUTE’S 10TH ANNIVERSARY CELEBRATION

Mechanobiology Institute, National University of Singapore celebrates 10 years of Mechanobiology

The Mechanobiology Institute, National University of Singapore was established 10 years ago. As one of the five Research Centres of Excellence set up by the National Research Foundation and Ministry of Education, Singapore, MBI has been at the forefront of world-class research in mechanobiology. Over the past decade, the basic idea at the heart of mechanobiology—that mechanical forces can impact biological processes—has become integral for research in the life sciences, physics, and engineering fields. To mark this success, MBI plans to celebrate its 10th anniversary with the following events:
