Finally, current PhD student Sebastian Giudice presenting our work on developing a new dummy headform with a sonomicrometry-enabled deformable brain.

Congrats to Sebastian Giudice for getting 1st place for Oral presentations at the University of Virginia Engineering Research Symposium (UVERS)! Sebastian's talk was titled "Development of a Novel Biomechanics-Based Imaging Modality".

Awesome write up about Sebastian and Bronek's achievements. facebook.com/MAEandUVA/phot…

It was just announced that Sebastian Giudice won our department's Graduate Student of the Year award! Congrats Seb! It's the 3rd year in a row someone from our group has won. Let's keep that streak going!

In the May issue of the ABME (and at the link below), you can read about "Finite Element Model of a Deformable American Football Helmet Under Impact" Panzer Lab at UVA Center for Applied Biomechanics UVA Engineering Biomedical Engineering Society Springer Nature rdcu.be/b38K3

Congrats to Sebastian and team for getting their paper titled "An Image Registration-Based Morphing Technique for Generating Subject-Specific Brain Finite Element Models" published in ABME! Check it out: doi.org/10.1007/s10439…

One wave after another! The new rule proposed would severely limit international students' ability to study in the US by capping their stay at 4 years with slim extension chance. This rule is open for comment until Oct 26th, make your feelings known. federalregister.gov/documents/2020…

Congrats "Team Head Bop" for publishing "The Effect of Muscle Activation on Head Kinematics During Non-injurious Head Impacts in Human Subjects" in ABME! This was a joint effort between the UVA Schools of Engineering, Medicine, and Education. link.springer.com/article/10.100…

So this is happening. In the USA. In 2021.

It’s easier for a white guy to get a gun into the US Capitol than it is for me to get a can of coke onto a plane

Our work developing a new MRE-based FE model of the 🧠 just got published! Got to collaborate with some awesome researchers on this one. @jasondruzgal Mechanical Neuroimaging Lab Panzer Lab at UVA Center for Applied Biomechanics @cowry09 frontiersin.org/articles/10.33…

Better late than never: Our recent study on tissue-level brain injury response in multiple species made it on the cover of the June issue of the Journal of Neurotrauma! Check it out: doi.org/10.1089/neu.20…

Our paper assessing finite element brain models using our in-situ brain deformation dataset just got published! Panzer Lab at UVA Center for Applied Biomechanics @cowry09 link.springer.com/article/10.100…
