We are an interdisciplinary research unit with an important international openness and direct collaboration between cell biologists, biochemists and biophysicists.

We are combining classical biochemical and cell biology approaches with the development of new force microscopy nanotools to map the dynamics, interactions and mechanics of the cell membrane and its nanoenvironment. 

This interdisciplinary approach is developed at different scales, from the nanoscale of proteins and membranes to the microscale of cells and tissues, and at different timescales, from microseconds to minutes.
