Introduction / mission
From mathematical models to clinical application.
Highlighted phrase
Computational and experimental biomechanical analysis of the cardiovascular system
Organisation profile
The Cardiovascular Biomechanics group performs research in the field of computational and experimental biomechanical analysis of the cardiovascular system. Aim is to develop computational models, experimental techniques, and medical devices for clinical diagnosis, decision support, and intervention.
Inherent to the groups approach is the testing of these models and devices using data obtained from our in vitro setups, from isolated (slaughterhouse) in vivo beating heart experiments, and data from animals and patients, obtained in collaboration with our academic and clinical partners.
The research is directed along the three following topics; Modelling, Experiments and Imaging.
UN Sustainable Development Goals
In 2015, UN member states agreed to 17 global Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) to end poverty, protect the planet and ensure prosperity for all. Our work contributes towards the following SDG(s):
-
SDG 3 Good Health and Well-being -
SDG 10 Reduced Inequalities -
SDG 16 Peace, Justice and Strong Institutions
