The College of Arts and Sciences is pleased to announce that Lisa Manning, associate professor of physics, is included in the Science News’ SN 10: Scientists to Watch. For the fourth year, Science News is spotlighting 10 early- and mid-career scientists on their way to widespread acclaim for tackling the big questions facing science and society.

Manning, 38, describes cells’ behavior in terms of the mechanical forces they exert on one another. Her approach has led to a new understanding of a whole host of biological processes that involve cells on the move, including embryonic development, wound healing and even asthma and cancer.
