The human brain is the continuous subject of extensive investigation aimed at
understanding its behavior and function. Despite a clear evidence that mechanical factors …

Peripheral neural interfaces have been successfully used in the recent past to restore
sensory-motor functions in disabled subjects and for the neuromodulation of the autonomic …

This monograph presents a general mathematical theory for biological growth. It provides
both a conceptual and a technical foundation for the understanding and analysis of …

The mammalian brain is composed of an outer layer of gray matter, consisting of cell bodies,
dendrites, and unmyelinated axons, and an inner core of white matter, consisting primarily of …

The compression of brain tissue by a tumour mass is believed to be a major cause of the
clinical symptoms seen in patients with brain cancer. However, the biological consequences …

The rheology of ultrasoft materials like the human brain is highly sensitive to regional and
temporal variations and to the type of loading. While recent experiments have shaped our …

Understanding the constitutive behavior of the human brain is critical to interpret the physical
environment during neurodevelopment, neurosurgery, and neurodegeneration. A wide …

Convolutions are a classical hallmark of most mammalian brains. Brain surface morphology
is often associated with intelligence and closely correlated with neurological dysfunction …

In higher plants, photosystems II and I are found in grana stacks and unstacked stroma
lamellae, respectively. To connect them, electron carriers negotiate tortuous multi‐media …

The biomechanical characterization of human brain tissue and the development of
appropriate mechanical models is crucial to provide realistic computational predictions that …
