Biomedical Engineering Seminar - Dr. Brian Diekman

BIOENGINEERING ELEVATED TALK CELEBRATING 50 YEARS OF BIOMEDICAL ENGINEERING AT THE UNIVERSITY OF UTAH, Medical Device Development: The World’s First Commercially Approved Polymeric Heart Valve,   Dr. Brian Diekman, Associate Professor of Biomedical Engineering, University of North Carolina Chapel Hill and North Carolina State University, In person in SMBB 2650! The Diekman lab is interested in the mechanisms driving osteoarthritis (OA), with the goal of developing therapies for early intervention. This seminar will focus on two key risk factors for OA: older age and genetic predisposition. The incidence of OA rises sharply in middle age, which may be related to underlying biological changes that disrupt the capacity to maintain joint homeostasis. One feature of chondrocytes is the accumulation of DNA damage, which is implicated in cellular senescence and subsequent production of inflammatory factors. Genetics are responsible for approximately half of OA risk, but this is spread across at least 300 loci that… Event Categories: Seminars.
