Tackling ageing in the gut: investigating the contribution of macrophages in the intestinal stem cell niche to gut maintenance and repair

, including frailty, and mental decline. However, the specific cellular and molecular mechanisms driving gut degeneration with ageing and how these lead to specific clinical outcomes are still unclear

A biochemo-mechano multi-scale computational model to predict bone adaptation over space and time

are triggered by biomechanical (e.g. mechanical loading or disuse) and biochemical (e.g. diseases or pharmacological treatments) stimulation. Therefore, the bone adaptation process is very complex as it involves
