Therefore, we use modeling to capture the coupling between the neurobiology of aging and mechanics-driven brain shape changes. Latter are particularly interesting because they are visible on MRI and therefore a sensitive marker for abnormal developments.

Email me if interested!

We study mechano-biological mechanisms of brain aging, neurodegeneration, and traumatic brain injury to predict brain changes with age and to detect abnormal changes resulting from disease. We know that mechanics plays an important role in many neuropathological mechanisms.

Code in Place 4 is on! Do you know anyone who wants to learn python? Know anyone who wants to teach? Share this class with them. It's a wonderful vibe.

[Weickenmeier Lab @weickenmeierlab]

@KurtLabResearch Glad to hear you are feeling better!

We will combine medical image registration, brain tissue experiments, and constitutive modeling to uncover the relationship between organ-level tissue volume loss and periventricular tissue degeneration during normal aging.

[Weickenmeier Lab @weickenmeierlab]

Brain aging is characterized by progressive neurodegeneration that causes cognitive slowing and functional decline. Over time, cell-level changes manifest as organ-level brain shape changes in the form of cortical thinning, white matter shrinking, and ventricular enlargement.
