Research title: A novel hybrid DCB + DES strategy for the treatment of coronary artery disease
Research Summary
My research interests are computational modelling, structural mechanics, drug transport, coronary artery disease and PCI.
Current research
Currently I am working as a PhD student at the University of Glasgow in the School of engineering, Biomedical department (JWSE). My work aims at creating an in silico analysis of Percutaneous Coronary Intervention (PCI) able to accurately reproduce this surgical procedure and study its effect on patients.
Past research
Funded by EUs Horizon 2020 research program my master thesis work was part of the INSIST (In Silico Clinical Trials for treatment of Acute Ischemic Stroke) project, a multidisciplinary and dynamic collaboration where I had the opportunity to work alongside researchers from all over Europe.
