Dr Mündermann’s scientific background is biomechanics with an emphasis on degenerative joint disease and joint loading. For her PhD, she investigated mechanics of running with different types of foot orthoses and received the Chancellors' Gold Medal for her dissertation. As a Post-doctoral Fellow at Stanford University, she focused on mechanical and biological factors in the initiation and progression of osteoarthritis. Dr Mündermann is currently a part-time Senior Research Fellow at the University of Otago, New Zealand. Dr Mündermann's technical skills include motion analysis, inverse dynamics, force measurements, electromyography, pressure measurements, MR imaging and Western blots. She has written numerous peer-reviewed journal articles, acted as a reviewer for several journals and has experience in medical writing in a wide range of topics including sport science, rheumatology, orthopedics, biomedical engineering, biomechanics, obesity, rehabilitation, physiotherapy and sport injuries. Dr Mündermann began working with the Edanz Group in 2008.

Dr Barry Patel

教育背景: 
2001 - PhD Neuroscience, McGill University, Canada
1993 - BSc Neurobiology, McGill University, Canada
1990 - Diploma of College Studies, Health Sciences, Vanier College, Montreal, Canada

Patel是一名神经科学家,专注于中枢神经系统退化和精神疾病的研究。在博士课题下,他开发了一个小鼠基因剔除模型,用于人类脑神经紊乱失调铜蓝蛋白缺乏症的研究。之后在哈佛大学医学院细胞生物学系担任研究员,研究神经细胞迁移中的分子信号通路。Patel近期一直在蒙特利尔道格拉式心理健康研究所担任助理,专注于精神疾病分子基因的研究。研究重点是严重抑郁症和自杀中的 microRNA信号网络microRNA的信令网络参与严重抑郁症和自杀。以第一作者的身份在很多有影响力的期刊上发表了多篇文章,包括《生物化学期刊》和《神经科学期刊》。2011年开始在理文编辑从事编辑工作。

Dr Patel is a neuroscientist interested in central nervous system degeneration and mental illness. For his doctoral thesis he developed a mouse gene-knockout model for the human neurological disorder aceruloplasminemia. Subsequently, as a research fellow at the Department of Cell Biology at Harvard Medical School he studied the molecular signaling cascades involved in nerve cell migration. Dr Patel has recently focused his research on the molecular genetics of psychiatric illness as an associate at the Douglas Mental Health Institute in Montreal. His studies center on microRNA signaling networks involved in major depression and suicide. Dr Patel has published a number of first-author articles in high-impact journals, including The Journal of Biological Chemistry and The Journal of Neuroscience. He began editing for the Edanz Group in 2011.
