Overview :

Our lab is interested in how endothelial cells sense and respond to mechanical stimuli. We have identified a number of experimental, mathematical, and computational techniques to explore the mechanics, physiology, and molecular dynamics of endothelial cells while subjected to fluid shear stress.

Projects:

	Molecular Dynamics of Stressed Membranes
	Time Correlated Single Photon Counting: Measuring Fluorescence Lifetime and diffusion of membrane dyes
	Mechanics as a moving target: adaptive rheology of endothelial cells
	Stressing membranes
	Cell-specific, multiscale modeling of cells
