Research summary
AI-generated

Sarah Calve's research focuses on how connective tissues like ligaments, tendons, cartilage, and pelvic floor structures are built and mechanically function, and how they change with injury, aging, or life events such as pregnancy. Her lab combines mechanical testing, biochemical analysis, and imaging methods to study the extracellular matrix (the structural scaffolding around cells) and to design biomaterials that mimic natural tissue properties for regenerative medicine applications.
