The project's topic is a haemodynamic problem in health care, its aim is to develop a software tool to inform clinical decisions.
Based in Engineering, you work in a multidisciplinary team and study artificial intelligence (AI) tools to extract geometric data from images and use them then to perform numerical blood flow simulations, thus enriching the patient-specific image data and enabling better predictions.
