Lori Ann Setton (born December 1, 1962) is an American biomechanical engineer noted for her research on mechanics and mechanobiology of the intervertebral disc, articular cartilage mechanics, drug delivery, and pathomechanisms of osteoarthritis. ==Biography== Setton was born in Queens, New York. She received a B.S.E. in Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering from Princeton University in 1984. Subsequently, she pursued graduate degrees under the tutelage of Professor Van C. Mow at Columbia University. She received an M.S. degree and Ph.D degree in Mechanical Engineering/Biomechanics in 1988 and 1993, respectively. She joined the Department of Biomedical Engineering at Duke University as an assistant professor in 1995. Promotions to tenured associate professor in and professor followed in 2004 and 2007. Her most noticeable work has documented the biological responses of cartilage and intervertebral disc to mechanical loading,〔(cited 154 times)〕 〔(cited 168 times)〕 〔(cited 122 times)〕 〔(cited 62 times)〕 〔(cited 35 times)〕 〔(cited 74 times)〕 understanding a role for collagen genetic mutations in onset of arthritis and intervertebral disc pathology,〔(cited 40 times)〕 〔(cited 29 times)〕 development of injectable hydrogels for articular cartilage repair,〔(cited 114 times)〕〔(cited 50times)〕 and development of injectable drug delivery vehicles for fighting inflammation in musculoskeletal disease. As of November 1, 2015, her work has been cited over 10100 times.〔(Goolge Scholar Citations for Lori Setton )〕 She has an h-index of 61. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Lori Ann Setton」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
