Experiments Coming My Way (Hopefully)

Today I learned how to make gels of different stiffnesses that cells can be cultured on. I hope to put this technique to work for me within the next couple of weeks and see what effects on cell mechanics these different stiffnesses have. Today was a good day - finally am figuring out what experiments I want to do and why I want to do them. Now I just need to coax my cells into growing a bit better...
