By fiddling with the cytoskeletons of real - life hydras, researchers found that the pond polyps rely on mechanical forces as well as molecular cues to regenerate head and tentacles in the right places (SN: 3/4/17, p. 19).

At the molecular level, he is discovering how mechanical forces signal gene expression to cause cell growth, migration and cell death.

In proposals to develop APM, this problem will be solved by guided molecular trajectories and positionally - controlled mechanosynthesis: reactive molecular fragments will be guided by molecular machine systems to a specific position and geometric orientation with respect to the growing atomically precise work piece so that the application of mechanical force will cause the desired bond to form.

With various colleagues, he created the first mechanical models of how cells and tissues form and change during development, how cells move and how nano - scale molecular motors inside cells exert forces on a pico - Newton scale.
