Congratulations to Dr Zhao Wang
Congratulations to Zhao Wang who recently passed his PhD viva.

Zhao's PhD, which was funded via the China Scholarship Council, examined the influence of osmotic challenge on chondrocyte biomechanics. Zhao has already published two papers in the journal, 'OA and Cartilage' with a further paper currently in revision with the Journal of Biomechanics. The work involved micropipette aspiration for measurement of cellular mechanical properties coupled with confocal analysis of actin dynamics using LifeACT-GFP. Zhao was supervised by Profs Martin Knight and Wen Wang.
