Kara Negrini

Kara Negrini serves as an Assistant Professor in the Department of Comparative Medicine, conducting interdisciplinary research that integrates veterinary and human medical science through comparative models. Her work bridges orthopedic biomechanics and cancer prevention mechanisms.

Her educational background includes a Doctor of Veterinary Medicine (DVM) and Master of Science (MS) degree. Research interests span critical domains:

• Breast Cancer Prevention and Exercise-induced Biological Pathways
• Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction Biomechanics
• Allograft/Autograft Tissue Response under Cyclic Loading
• Immunocompetent Cell Function in Disease Models
• Oncostatin M-mediated Tumor Suppression

Recent publications reveal dual thematic concentrations: orthopedic tissue engineering (examining graft biological responses to mechanical stress) and molecular oncology (elucidating exercise-induced breast cancer prevention mechanisms). This work directly supports UN Sustainable Development Goals for health innovation.
