The groundbreaking research could help surgeons treat everything from cuts to cancer

Working with scientists at Harvard University, as well as the University of Sheffield, Prof Destrade immediately told his Boston counterpart Dr Guo-Yang Li to go out and buy a bodhrán and record the sound waves it creates.

“So now we can apply this to materials we don’t know much about like membranes in the human body; for example, skin, the bladder, the diaphragm, the eardrum.. there are so many membranes in the body we don’t really know what they are made of. A paper on the measurement has just been published in the Nature journal Communications Physics and the team of scientists are already working on a revised version for the prestigious Science Advances journal.

“Dermatologists looking to find an area of skin that has a pathology you can’t see with the naked eye, like cancer without any change in colour, could use it, or a surgeon grafting skin who wants to know how much stress and force can be used.
