✦ Synopsis
Atomic Force Microscopy becomes an invaluable technique for the study of biological systems at a nanometric scale [1, 2]. During the past decade, it has been increasingly used to image and manipulate biomolecules and cell surfaces in air or in situ. Development of dynamic modes of operation adapted for the imaging of soft samples has significantly contributed to overcome the usual issue of damage done to these biological objects by the scanning tip [3].
