Welcome to the Cerebrospinal Fluid Laboratory wiki page.
Contents
Overview
Welcome to CSF lab.com, a website dedicated to investigation of the underlying biomechanical and hydrodynamic mechanisms responsible for pathologies of the cerebrospinal and cerebrovascular system.
Purpose
- foster collaboration and discussion between cerebrospinal fluid and cerebrovascular researchers
- provide in vivo and in vitro experimental data to computational researchers
- increase interest in cerebrospinal fluid research
Research Projects
- cerebral blood flow and cerebrospinal fluid pulsation coupling
- relative distribution of spinal subarachnoid space compliance
- cerebral blood flow and continuous positive airway pressure
- MR measurement of wave transmission in the spinal subarachnoid space
- in silico modeling of CSF wave transmission
- syringomyelia and Chiari malformation
Student Projects Available
