The research in our lab is focused on:

  • Fabrication and mechanical characterization of soft and bio-inspired composite materials

  • Biomechanics of soft tissues such as the intervertebral disc and cardiovascular tissues

  • Structure-function in complex materials

  • Non-linear numerical simulations of soft-tissue biomechanics
