About Alexander Bershadsky

Alexander Bershadsky, With an exceptional h-index of 70 and a recent h-index of 38 (since 2020), a distinguished researcher at Weizmann Institute of Science, specializes in the field of Actin Cytoskeleton, Integrin Adhesions, Microtubules, Cell Mechanosensitivity, Cell chirality.

His recent articles reflect a diverse array of research interests and contributions to the field:

Chirality in single cell and cell collectives as an emergent property of actin self-organization

Chiral growth of adherent filopodia

Focal adhesions are controlled by microtubules through local contractility regulation

Actin polymerisation and crosslinking drive left-right asymmetry in single cell and cell collectives

Application of piconewton forces to individual filopodia reveals mechanosensory role of L-type Ca2+ channels

Semaphorin3F reduces vascular endothelial and smooth muscle cell PI3K activation and decreases neointimal plaque formation

Microtubules tune mechanosensitive cell responses

Forces in biology-Cell and developmental mechanobiology and its implications in disease-Volume II
