The Myers and Hendon Labs congratulate Frank Yao and Yu Gan on their well-deserved doctoral degrees from Columbia University. Yu and Frank pioneered imaging and analysis techniques to quantify collagen fiber architecture in the human cervix. Their work defines cervical anisotropic material properties, helping us understand the mechanical integrity of the cervix during pregnancy.
