Musculoskeletal Systems Biology Lab awarded grant: "Biophysical Control of Bone Regeneration"

zebrafish tailRon Kwon, PhD, has been awarded a New Faculty Research Fund Grant from the UW Department of Orthopaedics entitled "Biophysical Control of Bone Regeneration". Dr. Kwon and his lab are exploring the role of biophysical stimuli in controlling regenerative processes.

"The figure on the right shows a zebrafish tail fin prior to ("A"), immediately following ("B"), and 14 days post amputation ("C"). In this project, we seek to assess the ability to use biophysical stimuli to control regeneration in the zebrafish fin."
