DESCRIPTION:My talk begins with deformability of red blood cells under wit
 h and without nucleus. By utilizing an online high speed vision and a high
  speed actuator\, we could succeed in fast and fine cell manipulation with
  the frequency of 100Hz and the resolution of 250 nanometers. As an applic
 ation of cell manipulation\, we show “Cell Stress Test” where a mechan
 ical stress is continuously imparted to a cell until it eventually gets da
 mages. We also show an interesting behavior of red blood cells where their
  recovery characteristics after three-minutes-loading in microchannel dram
 atically change. We discovered two-steps-recovery-process where 50% recove
 r happens in the first step\, and the remaining 45% in the second step. We
  also show “Cell Pinball” where this phenomenon can only be observed u
 nder red blood cell on limited condition. We tried to explain the principl
 e why cell pinball behavior happens. We also discuss how human can keep th
 eir life in space center under zero gravity. We show our hypothesis where 
 our brain activity correlates with the deformability of red blood cell. \n
 Finally\, we show a new “Cell Exercise” where a cell under periodic pr
 essure results in twice more contact areas between cell and bottom than th
 ose under atmospheric pressure during one hour.\n\nThe seminar will be hel
 d in JDB Seminar Room\, Department of Engineering\, and online (zoom): htt
