Research summary

Jeffrey R. Tonniges studies the structure and mechanics of connective tissue, particularly collagen and the aorta (the body's main artery), and how these change in conditions like diabetes and aneurysms. His work combines animal models with measurements of tissue stiffness and cell biology to understand how blood vessel walls maintain or lose their function. This research is relevant to students interested in cardiovascular biology, extracellular matrix biology, or muscle and tissue physiology.
