  • Description

Mechanobiology looks to describe the impact mechanical forces have on cellular function. Principles of mechanobiology can be applied from the cellular to the systems level, and are providing researchers with a deeper understanding of biological development. Mechanobiology of the Brain: Mechanics of Neuronal Structure, Function, and Pathophysiology looks to apply this approach to function and development of the brain.

Mechanobiology of the Brain provides an account of the mechanical properties of cells and their networks while putting them into the context of modern neuroscience. The book is divided into three sections. The first provides the reader with general principles of mechanobiology and applies them broadly to the field of neuroscience. Section two looks specifically at mechanical features of the brain and its function. The final section looks to apply mechanobiological techniques to understanding brain injury and dysfunction.

Synthesizing an emerging field of neuroscience research, Mechanobiology of the Brain will be an essential purchase for advanced neuroscience students to seasoned researchers looking for an entry point into the field.
