Pere Roca-Cusachs

Title: Understanding and engineering ECM-nucleus force transmission and mechanotransduction

Institute for Bioengineering of Catalonia, Spain

Pere Roca-Cusachs obtained his PhD in cellular biophysics in 2007 from the Medical School at the University of Barcelona. He then worked in the lab of Prof. Michael Sheetz (Department of Biological Sciences, Columbia University) as a post-doctoral researcher until 2011. In 2011, He joined the University of Barcelona, where he is now full professor. In 2012, he obtained a joint position as group leader at the Institute for bioengineering of Catalonia (IBEC). He is an EMBO member and a recipient of the EMBO Young Investigator Award, the 2017 City of Barcelona award to the Life Sciences, the 2017 Young Investigator Award of the European Biophysical Societies Association (EBSA), and an advanced grant from the ERC. The research of his group focuses on unraveling the physical and molecular mechanisms by which cells detect and respond to mechanical force.
