title: Electrically-driven modulation of surface-grafted RGD peptides for manipulation of cell adhesion.
abstract: Reported herein is a switchable surface that relies on electrically-induced conformational changes within surface-grafted arginine-glycine-aspartate (RGD) oligopeptides as the means of modulating cell adhesion.
