...have produced amazing work,” Yao said. Yao’s senior thesis, titled “Nonlinear Mechanics of Biopolymer Networks,” describes his study of the elasticity of neurofilaments, which have the tendency to stiffen when stretched. Yao devised an approach for measuring neurofilaments?? elasticity that proved more accurate than traditional methods, which are best suited for materials that do not stiffen. His technique yielded high-quality data and made it possible for researchers to discover the origin of the protein interactions that caused stiffening in neurofilaments. “This...
