  • Abstract: The euHeart Project is a European FP7 project of the IP category. It combines seventeen industrial, clinical and academic partners, whose collective goal is the development of individualized, computer-based, human heart models. Using comprehensive, patient-specific data as the basis for their design, these models will provide insight into the origin and progression of specific disease patterns, including those associated with heart failure, heart rhythm disorders, coronary artery disease, and aortic disease. Within this project, the Macs team is more specifically in charge of coordinating one workpackage entitled “Biophysical model personalisation”, which consists in developing some methodological and software tools to solve the inverse problems of concern in the applications considered in the project.

  • Defi: Virtual Physiological Human

  • Instrument: Integrated Project (IP)

  • Duration: March 2011 – February 2015

  • Coordinator: Univ. Sheffield (UK)

  • Others partners: Cyfronet (Cracow), University College London, Istituto Ortopedico Rizzoli (Bologna), NHS, IBM Israel, Univ. Auckland, Agència d'Informació, Avaluació i Qualitat en Salut (Barcelona), Biocomputing Competence Centre (Milano), Universitat Pompeu Fabra (Barcelona), Philips Research, TUE (Eindhoven), Sheffield Teaching Hospitals, Atos Origin (Madrid), the Open University (UK), Univ. Vienna, King's College London, Empirica (Bonn), Fundació Clínic (Barcelona), Univ. Amsterdam

  • Abstract: VPH-Share aims at developing the organisational fabric (the infostructure) and integrate the optimised services to expose and share data and knowledge, to jointly develop multiscale models for the composition of new VPH workflows, and to facilitate collaborations within the VPH community. Within this project, the Macs team is in charge of developing some high-performance data assimilation software tools.
