This project investigates the effects of mechanical loading on Achilles tendon healing. It aims to develop computational and experimental models to enhance recovery and biomechanical properties of tendons, potentially improving treatment methods.
Tendons are part of the mechanosensitive musculoskeletal system and link muscles to bones.
They have a predominantly mechanical role by regulating and transmitting forces.
Tendon injuries are characterised by degraded tissue matrix that leads to inflammation and pain, and could lead to ruptures.
The restoration process of tendons is extremely slow and although existing treatments include physiotherapy, the efficiency of loading has not been proven yet.
This is due to our limited knowledge in how…
