Membrane deformation research focuses on studying the physical changes and deformations that occur in biological membranes. This area of research is important for understanding the structural and functional properties of membranes in cells, as well as how membranes interact with other cellular components. Membrane deformation research can involve studying various processes such as membrane curvature, stretching, bending, and invagination, and how these deformations affect cell function and physiology. Researchers in this field often use a variety of techniques including microscopy, computational modeling, and biochemical assays to study membrane deformations at the molecular level.
