Title: Electrochemical Analysis of Cells in Physical Microenvironment: from Single-Cell to Intercellular Communications Abstract: Cells exist in a complex microenvironment in vivo, where physical factors (e.g., mechanical, thermal, electric factors) influence and regulate cellular functions and properties, correlating with disease initiation and progression. And the development of diseases involves abnormal interactions and communications among multiple cells. Thus, constructing in...

Title: Validation of Multiphysics Brain Aging Models Against Population-Level Imaging Data Abstract: The brain is our most complex organ and provides many scientific opportunities for engineering disciplines; yet, despite the obvious role of mechanics across scales, neuromechanics remains understudied. In this talk, I will discuss our approaches to integrating cross-sectional imaging data from the UK Biobank and constitutive modeling to study the mechanobiological behavior of the human...
