Profile

Research in the Weiss Biomechanics Lab focuses on the development and application of experimental and computational techniques to the study of musculoskeletal and cardiovascular cells, tissues and organs. A central theme of our approach to research is the use of multidisciplinary techniques to address research questions that would be impossible to investigate using approaches in a single technical discipline. Our laboratory also leads the development and support of the FEBio software suite (Finite Elements for Biomechanics, www.febio.org).
