Many of the same features that you are able to use with a Google search will work with Find A Researcher! You can use these tools to find exactly what you're looking for.
- When you search for multiple words, Find A Researcher will return results containing all of the words listed.
- Searching for modern dance jazz will return results containing all three of the words modern, dance, and jazz.
- If you separate individual words with an upper-case OR, Find A Researcher will return results containing any of the words in your query.
- Searching for chemistry OR biology will return results containing either (or both) of the words chemistry or biology.
- You can surround a phrase with quotation marks to have Find A Researcher search for that exact phrase.
- Searching for "seismic hazard assessment" will return results containing the exact phrase seismic hazard assessment.
- If you prepend a word or phrase with a -, Find A Researcher will return results that do not contain that word or phrase.
- Searching for stereo -microscope will return results containing the word stereo, and which do not contain the word microscope

Research Summary: Our research focuses on extreme deformation and injury of blood vessels, particularly as may occur in traumatic brain injury and balloon angioplasty. This includes developing a better understanding of changes that occur in the mechanical properties, microstructure, and function of the vessels as a result.
Equipment:
isolated blood vessel testing; injury modeling: controlled cortical impact, blast injury; computational modeling

LUCAS H TIMMINS
Affiliate Faculty Member, University of Utah, Scientific Computing and Imaging Institute
Adjunct Associate Professor, Biomedical Engineering
Research Summary: The broad scope of my research program is to understand the interactions between mechanics and cardiovascular disease, with a focus on translating efforts and establishing disruptive technologies that advance patient management. The two broad objectives of my research are 1) to advance the diagnosis, prognosis, and treatment of cardiovascular disease in the clinical setting and 2) to understand how mechanics drive the structure, function, and remodeling of vascular tissues.
