Présentation

Felix Rico is Associate Professor in the department of Physics of Aix-Marseille University since 2013. His research is developed at the joint laboratory Aix-Marseille University, Inserm, DyNaMo. He has been working in force measurements with atomic force microscopy (AFM) since 2001. His research track is focused on the mechanics and adhesion properties of biological systems. He has developed various AFM based approaches to investigate the mechanical response of single molecules, membranes and cells. He adapted high speed AFM (HS-AFM) to work as a force spectroscopy tool, probing the mechanics and dynamics of single biomolecules and living cells at microsecond timescales. Thanks to an ERC Consolidator grant, his team combined HS-AFM with confocal microscopy and implemented acoustic force spectroscopy (AFS) to allow measurements on living cells. The goal is to obtain a complete, multi-scale picture of the physics of cell adhesion over the widest dynamic range. [Personal website](https://sites.google.com/view/fm4b-lab/people/dr-felix-rico)
