EPSRC Doctoral Training Partnership: A computational biomechanical model to optimise personalised treatments for spine metastases
The management of patients with vertebral metastases is critical, due to the challenging assessment of vertebral stability and the need to decide whether the patient needs an invasive intervention to fix the spine. Read more
Novel ultrasound imaging approaches for assessment of skeletal muscle structure and function in health and disease
Human skeletal muscles are composed of many fibres that, on excitation by the nervous system, contract and produce mechanical force to move the skeleton. Read more
