An Institute Lecture is being organized on Aug 8th, 2023 (Tuesday) at 5:00 pm in L-17, (LHC) by  Dr. Dipankar Choudhury, Vice President, Research at ANSYS, Inc. on the topic “Improving Health Outcomes with Physics-based Simulation Methods”.

Abstract:
Digital transformation continues to pervade every industry - automotive, aerospace, electronics, logistics, and manufacturing, to name a few. The impact of these advances in modeling and simulation technologies and their applications is also being felt in biomedical engineering, medicine, and healthcare. The first part of this presentation will provide an overview of the underpinnings of physics-based simulation software, while touching on current practices and emerging trends in areas such as Numerical Methods, High-Performance Computing, and Machine Learning. The second part of the talk will focus on new initiatives and applications in healthcare with a focus on a few areas such as cardiology. Cardiovascular disease is the leading cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide with coronary artery disease being a major burden on healthcare systems. Over the past decade esearchers and practitioners have developed modeling and simulation decision-making tools and examples of these in the clinical workflow will be shared. Speaker will also discuss the future direction of modeling and simulation in the fields of biomedical engineering, medicine, and healthcare.
