Biography: 

Prof. Zimmermann completed her PhD in Materials Science & Engineering at the University of California, Berkeley where she investigated structure-function relationships in biological tissues, such as bone and fish scales. These studies investigated how the complex multi-scale structure of biological tissues听resists deformation and fracture in a variety of disease and physiological conditions.听Elizabeth then conducted post-doctoral fellowships in Germany (University Medical Center, Hamburg-Eppendorf) and Canada (Shriners Hospital for Children-Canada), where she worked with clinicians and scientists to investigate听bone adaptation听in genetic disorders like Marfan Syndrome and osteogenesis imperfecta听using pre-clinical and clinical imaging techniques.听
