| Objectives: | 听听 | To understand the molecular level characteristics of extracellular matrices that form
musculoskeletal tissues such as tendons, ligaments, cartilage, muscle and bone.聽 To understand the structural hierarchial organization and physiology of musculoskeletal tissues.聽 To understand the biological and physiological factors that render these tissues the unique mechanical properties they have.聽 To understand the concepts such as stress, strain, stress-strain relationships, viscoelasticity and how these concepts apply to musculoskeletal tissues.聽 To understand how the mechanical function of these tissues alter with age, disease and trauma. |
