Studied various spectroscopic and other imaging models to measure the features of hydrogel nanopores, to understand the dimensional effects on cell-therapeutic practices.

Healthy articular joints exhibit remarkable lubrication due in large part to the complex rheological and tribological behaviour of the synovial fluid (SF) that lubricates the joints. Current approaches that seek to elucidate such remarkable lubrication usually focus on the roles of high molecular weight SF components such as lubricin and hyaluronic acid but frequently overlook the role of serum albumin, although it represents 90% of the protein content of SF.My master thesis focused on studying the tribological characteristics of serum albumin and study its lubrication, friction, and wear protective capabilities using the Surface Forces Apparatus (SFA) for the purpose of biolubrication, and development of biomimetics for osteoarthritisLink: https://sites.google.com/site/gourdongroup/the-team
