DESCRIPTION:Vascular Mechanobiology – Development\, Disease Progression\,
  Tissue Engineering\n\nVascular cells – endothelial\, smooth muscle\, fi
 broblasts\, tissue resident macrophages – are exquisitely sensitive to c
 hanges in their mechanical environment. We will first consider some genera
 l principles for understanding and modeling vascular mechanobiology\, then
  illustrate these concepts for three different illustrative examples: arte
 rial development\, aortic responses to hypertension\, and in vivo developm
 ent of a tissue engineered vascular graft for children with congenital hea
 rt defects. We will find that the same conceptual framework can be used ac
 ross diverse situations with appropriate choices of the requisite relation
 s for tissue turnover and mechanical properties.\n \n\nBio: \nJ.D. Humphre
 y received the Ph.D. in engineering science and mechanics from The Georgia
  Institute of Technology and completed a post-doctoral fellowship in medic
 ine - cardiovascular at the Johns Hopkins University. He is currently John
  C. Malone Professor of Biomedical Engineering at Yale University\, where 
 his research and teaching focuses on vascular mechanics and mechanobiology
 . He has authored a graduate textbook (Cardiovascular Solid Mechanics)\, c
 o-authored an undergraduate textbook with a student (An Introduction to Bi
 omechanics)\, co-authored a handbook (Style and Ethics of Communication in
  Science and Engineering)\, and published 400+ archival journal papers.
