Can one see a force? Inferring mechanics from images of cells and tissues Mechanical forces shape cells and tissues: they drive morphogenesis, act as cues that cells sense and respond to, and determine whether tissues hold together or fail. Measuring these forces where they act, however, remains difficult. The probes that measure them directly, such as indenters, laser cuts, molecular tension sensors and engineered substrates, perturb the system, give local or relative readouts, or require cells to sit on an artificial substrate, and most cannot reach a cell inside a tissue or a living embryo…
