Mechanobiology to Enhance Human Health and Advance Medicine

Our faculty experts in engineering, biology, physics, physical therapy, and more are investigating the role of force and mechanics in biological systems, from the molecular level to the whole body. Our combined expertise will point the way to new treatments and therapies for cancer, coronary disease, osteoporosis, dementia, and many other conditions that arise as we grow older.
