Abstract
This paper describes Cell Dynamic Research from the viewpoint of mechanical dynamics. In these days, Life Science has got much attention from lots of researchers in various fields such as molecular biology, agriculture, chemical engineering, or computer science. Though it is usually thought that life science may be out of field for mechanical engineers, several parts of life science have had close relation to mechanical engineering. A cell is the most basic element for living things, and it may sense its circumstance, and actuate or control by itself In this sense, a cell may be a typical example of micro-or nano-machines. But, to the best of my knowledge, very few reseachers have interested in the dynamic properties of a cell. Some example studies are introduced in this article, and I would like to introduce you the world of Cell Dynamics.
