About the research
Repetitive work can change tissues long before an injury becomes easy to see.
Read the full research overview
Mary Barbe studies how repetition and force affect musculoskeletal and nervous systems, using a rat model of work-related overuse injury. Her research examines inflammation, fibrosis, tissue degeneration, and sensorimotor dysfunction, alongside possible interventions. A separate line of work investigates surgical approaches to bladder and urethral sphincter reinnervation after spinal root injury. These projects connect anatomy, neuroscience, and tissue pathology with specific questions about injury mechanisms and functional recovery.
