Mechanical Adaptations Laboratory

About the Lab

Our bodies and cells have evolved to manage complex tasks by integrating diverse inputs. By promoting this natural capacity—or harnessing it through engineering solutions—we may unlock new strategies for addressing challenges across regenerative medicine and emerging biotechnologies. Therefore, studies in Mechanical Adaptations Laboratory (MAL)  and the Biomechanics and Mechanobiology (BMMB) Laboratory focus on developing multiscale computational and experimental models to advance translational medicine, improve human health, and drive new technologies that address national scientific priorities.
