At 26, Sammy Basso is believed to be the oldest person with Progeria, an exceedingly rare and fatal disease that afflicts only about one in 18 million people. And now he’s researching it, hoping to find a treatment and the secrets of aging. nyti.ms/3tYVAi8

Just out from postdoc Jongmin Seo and abhay ramachandra in Seminars in Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery "Computational Evaluation of Venous Graft Geometries in Coronary Artery Bypass Surgery" using SimVascular sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

you spend 7 days deriving a finite element formulation, you end up with a week's worth of weak formulation(s) #fem

#newinJBME Investigators from @YaleBME and Yale School of Medicine showed that fibulin-5 deficient mice can contribute to our understanding of the complex roles of elastin in pulmonary health and disease.

Come join the Stanford Cardiovascular Institute Early Career Symposium on October 17th, 9 AM - 5 PM PT: We have great speakers, including a Biomechanics session featuring abhay ramachandra , Kyoko Yoshida , and Sandra Loerakker! Registration is free: med.stanford.edu/cvi/events/202…

Our findings on remodeling of murine branch pulmonary arteries under chronic hypoxia in JBME Editors : doi.org/10.1115/1.4064…

In 2024: #Biology conference: This is state-of-art data, from our 2022 paper. #Mechanical engineering conference: This is recent data, from our 2022 paper. #AI/#ML conference: This is old data, from our 2022 paper. Different disciplines, different scales!

A fun project that I got to mostly work on with pen and paper! We looked at the potential for mechanical instabilities when simulating vascular smooth muscle contraction and found potential issues with simple constitutive models: link.springer.com/article/10.100…

Attention biomech-mechbio folks: Reminder that abstract submission for the 2024 MechBio Symposium is currently open, and the submission deadline is extended until July 15, 2024. Standard registration for all participants is also now open. Check out details on website+RT/Amplify!

#newinJBME This #technicalbrief from abhay ramachandra Yale University measures longitudinal changes in pulmonary artery remodeling under hypoxia, data that will be used to inform future predictive models of vascular adaptation. doi.org/10.1115/1.4064…
