Electro-fluid-mechanics of the Human Heart

Unlocking the complexities of the human heart, this groundbreaking computational model simulates its intricate dynamics with unprecedented precision. Leveraging cutting-edge GPU technology, this virtual heart offers powerful tools for diagnosing and treating cardiovascular disorders, the leading cause of death in developed countries. By replicating the interactions of electrophysiology, elastomechanics, and hemodynamics, this model can predict patient outcomes, evaluate novel prosthetic devices, and optimize surgical procedures—all with remarkable accuracy. Discover how this innovative approach could revolutionize modern medicine by enhancing clinical decision-making and improving patient care.

Speaker: Roberto Verzicco, professor in Fluid Dynamics at the University of Roma Tor Vergata and at the Gran Sasso Science Institute of L’Aquila.
