Ligaments serve to control the movements of bones and joints within the body. Viscoelastic properties, such as hysteresis, allow them to perform their functions; however, these properties may change following injury. Understanding alterations in viscoelastic properties may be useful in diagnosing, tracking, and determining treatment effectiveness in Chronic Ankle Instability...
Interventions for young children with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) focus on core impairments in social communication skills, yet studies have shown a relationship between social and motor skill deficits in children with ASD. The purpose of this study is to further examine individual levels of gross and fine motor skills...
Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) have emerged as promising candidates in novel cancer therapies due to their unique properties, including high surface area, tunable crystal size, and exposed metal ion active sites for catalysis. The MOF NH2-MIL-88B has shown potential use in cancer theranostics. Its open metal active sites catalyze the reduction...
Hemodynamic forces regulate vascular homeostasis and arterial structure through mechanical stimuli by a process called mechanotransduction. Cellular response to mechanical forces involves coordination between cell surface receptors and intracellular signaling pathways. While previous work has focused on the role of integrin receptors in mechanotransduction, little is known about the role...
