Research School: Digital Twins of the Human Body

Join us for an intensive 2-day school on biomedical modeling and high-performance computing. This event will focus on advanced topics in the modeling and simulation of human organs using the deal.II finite element library, combining theory with real-world applications.

What we offer

  • Presentations on key challenges in biomedical modeling
  • In-depth sessions on algorithmic and implementation aspects
  • Practical hands-on tutorials
     

Whether you are a student, researcher, or professional, this program will equip you with the tools and insights to advance your work at the intersection of life sciences and computing.
