A novel soft robotic device designed to fit around the ascending aorta promises to enable high-fidelity simulation of the hemodynamics and biomechanics of aortic stenosis and congenital valve disease.
Knee Ligament Surgery Study Findings May Help Explain ACL Injury Risk
New findings from a Cleveland Clinic-led study upend conventional wisdom about the long-term outcomes of ACL surgery.
Machine Learning to Assess Stroke Risk
With grant funding from the Department of Defense, a team of researchers will test the ability of a new machine learning algorithm to accurately determine the degree of stenosis and predict the precise plaque composition. Dr. Geoffrey Vince discusses the project, which he believes could lead to a new means of clinically assessing stroke risk.

$3.5M Grant Awarded to Annotate and Exchange Virtual Anatomy
Ahmet Erdemir, PhD, staff in the Department of Biomedical Engineering, Lerner Research Institute, has received a four-year, $3.5 million grant from the National Institute of Biomedical Imaging and Bioengineering (part of the National Institutes of Health) to develop a software suite that will allow the annotation of virtual anatomy.
The True Value of Basic Research
Nearly everything we do in the lab has an uncertain outcome, and therefore every experiment provides knowledge that is new in some way. Biomedical researcher Dr. Suneel Apte explains.
