Measuring ventral nerve cord stiffness in live flat-dissected Drosophila embryos by atomic force microscopy

Drosophila is an amenable system for addressing the mechanics of morphogenesis. We describe a workflow for characterizing the mechanical properties of its ventral nerve cord (VNC), at different developmental stages, in live, flat-dissected embryos employing atomic force microscopy (AFM). AFM is perf...
