Larry Taber

Dennis & Barbara Kessler Professor of Biomedical Engineering

Taber
Download

Taber has been probing the forces, stresses and deformations of the heart since the mid-1980s. A major focus of his work is to show that biomechanical forces may be as important as genetics in shaping the heart. Recently, Taber has developed a theory on tissue growth and morphogenesis — shape change ...


Expertise: biomechanics of cardiovascular development, heart, embryo, blood vessels
