Expérimental et théorique Description
This project investigates intracellular nanorheology using molecular rotors—fluorescent probes whose rotational dynamics quantify local viscosity at the nanoscale. Our team at MSC laboratory has developed the application of these probes to measure rheological properties within red blood cells. This approach allows quantitative assessment of red blood cell mechanical properties and detection of pathological alterations in sickle cell anemia and spherocytosis.
