Journal Article
Moazen, M., Alazmani, A., Rafferty, K., Liu, Z.-J., Gustafson, J., Cunningham, M. L., Fagan, M. J., & Herring, S. W. (2016). Intracranial pressure changes during mouse development. Journal of biomechanics, 49(1), 123-126. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jbiomech.2015.11.012

During early stages of postnatal development, pressure from the growing brain as well as cerebrospinal fluid, i.e. intracranial pressure (ICP), load the calvarial bones. It is likely that such loading contributes to the peripheral bone formation at t... Read More about Intracranial pressure changes during mouse development.

Mechanical properties of calvarial bones in a mouse model for craniosynostosis (2015)
Journal Article
Moazen, M., Peskett, E., Babbs, C., Pauws, E., & Fagan, M. J. (2015). Mechanical properties of calvarial bones in a mouse model for craniosynostosis. PLoS ONE, 10(5), e0125757. https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pone.0125757

The mammalian cranial vault largely consists of five flat bones that are joined together along their edges by soft fibrous tissues called sutures. Premature closure of the cranial sutures, craniosynostosis, can lead to serious clinical pathology unle...
