Gunnar Cedersund held a presentation on our digital twins at the annual event “Healthy Vascular Aging Symposium”, at Danderyd’s hospital, on April 21. The event was arranged by the Swedish Organization for hypertension, stroke, and vascular medicine, which is a national network for scientists and clinicians. Apart from this annual event, they also arrange a study group for Ph.D. students in the field.
This year’s event had a special focus, and apart from Gunnar’s presentation on digital twins and Henrik Hellqvist’s presentation on machine learning (photo below), there was an interesting lecture by Ljubica Matic, from Ulf Hedin’s group. Together, these three presentations created a nice flow: the large database for vascular health built up by the Hedin and Matic, traditional ML-based analysis of such data, and our own hybrid approaches, including all other organs and longitudinal data, among others.
At the event, we also went through our upstarting and exciting M4-HEALTH project, which includes digital twins not only for vascular health, but also for all other medical applications, including even non-clinical actors. Read more about our excellence cluster on m4-health.se and don’t miss our next workshop, on May 25-26.
