We are very proud to announce the publication of a major step forward in our understanding of the relationship between disease-related (fibrotic) remodeling of the heart and biomechanics of atrial contraction. Congratulations to first author Dr. Åshild Telle and thank you to our dear friend and collaborator, co-senior author Dr. Christoph Augustin. This paper is a big deal for our lab for several reasons. First, it include an implementation of fractional factorial design (FFE), a “Design of Experiments” technique Pat spends…

New CardSS Lab Research: Machine Learning & AI In Cancer Survivorship
Check out this new paper from the Cardiac Systems Simulation (CardSS) Lab! This is the first product from our NIH R21-funded project in machine learning-based prediction of heart disease risk in survivors of childhood cancer. Thank you to our incredible collaborators, especially Dr. Lindsay Edwards at Duke in pediatric cardiology and Dr. Eric Chow at the Fred Hutch, our expert in cancer survivorship! Most importantly, congratulations to CardSS Lab team member Dr. Surbhi Sharma and lab alumna Zih-Hua Chen (MS…

Izzy Kim is one of this year’s Husky 100!!
We are very proud to share that our longtime lab member Izzy Kim has been awarded the amazing Husky 100 distinction for the 2023-24 academic year! Izzy is a current senior in our undergraduate program and has been a member of the CardSS Lab since November 2021. She established herself as a strong research presence in the lab while working with her initial graduate student mentor (Dr. Savannah Bifulco, who graduated this past summer). For the past year, she has…
New Review on Biomechanics in AFib Published!
We are very proud to share that Dr. Åshild Telle‘s first paper as a member of the lab was published earlier this week in Expert Review of Cardiovascular Therapy! The title of our review is “Personalized biomechanical insights in atrial fibrillation: opportunities & challenges”. The paper will be available to subscribers via this link. The publisher has provided a second link that will make the paper available to non-subscribers for a limited time, please use this link only if your…
