I would like to biomanufacture a biodegradable second-skin rehabilitation patch for perimenopausal women. Many women experience more joint pain, tendon discomfort, and reduced confidence in exercise during perimenopause. This can make them less likely to continue rehabilitation or strength training. The patch would use recombinant spider silk as a soft, flexible, skin-like material. It would monitor joint movement during rehabilitation and could eventually include biosensing of inflammatory biomarkers such as IL-6. The goal is to make rehabilitation feel less clinical and more comfortable, while helping women better understand how their body responds to exercise.</description><generator>Hugo</generator><language>en</language><atom:link href="https://pages.htgaa.org/2026b/sham-ki-tsang/week-01-hw-project-ideas/index.xml" rel="self" type="application/rss+xml"/></channel></rss>
