Here, we modulated the immune response after nerve injury, and defined a new term, regenerative bias, based on the ratio of M1 and M2 macrophage, and showed that rather than the extent of macrophage presence, their specific phenotype regulates the regenerative outcomes.\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003EMarina Piccinelli - Advisor, Alessandro Veneziani, PhD\u003C\/strong\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003E\u0022Image-based Computational Investigations of Intracranial Aneurysms. 3D Morphology and Implications for Hemodynamics\u0022\u003C\/strong\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003EIntracranial aneurysms are pathological dilatations of arterial blood vessels, their rupture being a severe clinical event associated with high rate of mortality and morbidity. Patient-specific hemodynamics and 3D vascular morphology have both been associated with the disease development and progression. A computational framework for the image-based investigations of 3D vascular geometry and hemodynamics of cerebral aneurysms is presented.\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003C\/p\u003E","summary":null,"format":"limited_html"}],"field_subtitle":"","field_summary":[{"value":"\u003Cp\u003EThe Graduate and Post-Doc (GaP) Seminar Series is a weekly event of research presentations by two graduate students or post-docs conducting bio-related research. \u0026nbsp;The series is organized and sponsored by the Parker H.
