Katherine E. Kerr

Katherine E. Kerr's research spans biomechanics, cell biology, and applied machine learning, with recent work focused on using computational and machine-learning tools to predict outcomes in abdominal aortic aneurysm repair. Earlier work examined the mechanical and biochemical properties of biological materials, including cell adhesion mechanisms and tools for measuring tissue viscoelasticity (a material's resistance to deformation combining both elastic and fluid-like behavior). This body of work suggests an interdisciplinary approach bridging physics-based measurement techniques, cell biology, and clinical outcome prediction.

Publication output has been modest but variable over the last decade, with intermittent gaps followed by small clusters of output, including an uptick in 2025.
