Graduate Research Assistant
Florida International University
Miami, Florida, United States
My name is Mohammad Shaver, PhD Candidate, and currently a Graduate Research Assistant in Florida International University. I have begun my graduate studies in field of biomedical engineering in 2016 with focus on Cardiovascular disease mechanisms and investigation of the effect of mechanical forces on cells membrane and its effect on vesicles trafficking, cyto skeleton and cell-cell communication and how they affect cardiovascular diseases. My proposed endeavor is to identify novel therapeutic targets to treat cardiovascular disease by examining the calcification process and hypertension-induced mechanical stress in the formation of calcifying vessels to identify novel therapeutic targets to treat cardiovascular diseases such as vascular calcification.
