Presidential Young Investigators Award - Basic Studies in Vascular Mechanics

作为保华的得奖者，韩飞龙博士 量化机械 血管的特征。 这项工作将比较实验 从离体血液中获得的数据 船舶与那些预测由一个 船舶数学分析 力学 这项研究将导致 更好地了解了 力学特性 活组织，并且应该 最终导致了 更好的组织替代品

As a PYI awardee, Dr. Humphrey will quantitate the mechanical characteristics of blood vessels. The work will compare experimental data obtained in excised blood vessels with those predicted by a mathematical analysis of the vessel mechanics. The research will lead to a better understanding of the mechanical characteristics of living tissues, and should eventually lead to the development of better tissue substitutes.
