My research converges at the interface of mechanical engineering, biomechanics, and materials science via theoretical, computational, and finite element analysis of the evolution of functional morphology with principle areas of application being hierarchal interactions amongst organs, tissues, and cells, and in particular, the mechanobiology of mandibular and maxillary remodeling.
My long-term goal is to rigorously model and predict morphological and functional events that occur during in-vivo microstructural evolution using computational and finite element simulations, and to apply this knowledge toward the improvement of clinical treatments.
