VAC-2025-66 - Computational Cardiovascular Modelling (FPI 2024)

Functions to be developed:

A doctoral thesis in the framework of the research project entitled INNOVECMO: Estudios Computacionales, Experimentales y de Prototipado para el Desarrollo de Sistemas Innovadores de Oxigenación Extracorpórea Sin Válvulas, with reference Project PID2024-158878OB-C21 funded by MCIN/AEI /9/501100011033 and by FEDER, EU. Principal investigators: Prof. Eduardo Soudah Pirieto y Joaquin Alberto Hernandez Ortega.

The Biomedical Engineering Group is seeking a motivated and enthusiastic PhD candidate to join our team. The research will focus on the numerical modelling and/or experimental study of an innovative cardiovascular device. The aim is to design and improve device performance using computational models (e.g., Finite Element Analysis or related methods). These models are increasingly important as decision-support tools in the preoperative phase. However, despite their high predictive power, they often demand substantial computa...
