Rate My Professor Lynne Bilston

Professor Lynne Bilston is a Professor and the Paul Trainor Chair in the Graduate School of Biomedical Engineering at the University of New South Wales. A biomechanical engineer, her research examines how mechanical forces contribute to physiological and pathophysiological processes in the body, with particular emphasis on injury biomechanics, neural tissue biomechanics, respiratory biomechanics, cerebrospinal fluid biomechanics, and other soft tissue mechanics. She develops advanced imaging techniques, including magnetic resonance methods, to measure biomechanical properties in vivo and applies this work to create new treatments for conditions such as obstructive sleep apnoea and cerebrospinal fluid flow disorders including Chiari malformation and syringomyelia.
