Trying to put it all together…

Page 43: Many hands make light work: How cells use tiny forces to

Which are the initiating events? What mechanisms control pulsed forces?How do other mechanical properties such as stiffness or protrusion contribute? Lots of positive feedback mechanisms, but how do these pathways get attenuated?

Some unanswered questions
