Join us for our latest webinar where we’ll be joined by Prof Peter Hunter and Prof Liesbet Geris

Join our next webinar with Dr David Kaminsky, University of Vermont, presenting their research on “Exploring the use of home oscillometry in COPD: Effect of indoor air pollution”

We are delighted to invite you to the next webinar in our series which will be delivered by Dr Jakob Löndahl of Lund University on, “ Experimental studies of respiratory tract deposition aerosol particles in healthy volunteers and patients with lung disease”.

This workshop will focus on the development of new ideas for integrating biophysical modelling into the understanding and treatment of airways disease. There will be £10k worth of pump-prime funding available for which groups formed during the sandpit will bid. Further details can be found in the “Pump-prime Funding” section.

Online component of the event “Challenge-led sandpit on structure and function in airways disease”.

We are delighted to invite you to the next webinar in our series, which will be presented by Dr Mona Eskandari of UC-Riverside.

This one day conference featured a broad selection of invited speakers across all of BIOREME’s themes, as well as a poster and networking session.

This is the first of a series of online focus groups which will provide an opportunity for industry represenatives to find out how they can work with the BIOREME network to create new mutually beneficial collaborations with academia in specific areas of BIOREME’s remit.

The final webinar of 2022 was presented by Professor Krasimira Tsaneva-Atanasova, Professor of Mathematics for Healthcare and Director of the EPSRC Hub for Quantitative Modelling in Healthcare at the University of Exeter.

This talk was presented by Dr Alejandro Diaz, Associate Professor in Applied Mathematics at the Clinical Operational Research Unit, UCL and part of the CHIMERA (Collaborative Healthcare Innovation through Mathematics, EngineeRing and AI) project, one of four national Hubs for Mathematical Sciences in Healthcare funded by EPSRC.

The BIOREME team are delighted to be going to this years British Science Festival being held in Leicester town centre.

The second webinar in our series was presented by Jim Wild, Professor of Magnetic Resonance Physics and Executive Director of Insigneo Institute for in-silico Medicine at the University of Sheffield. He founded and leads the imaging research group POLARIS, specialising in hyperpolarised gas magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and using this technology to garner new insights into lung function.

The first BIOREME webinar was presented by Dr Jessica Oakes, Assistant Professor at Northeastern University in Boston, Massachusetts. Jessica directes the Respiratory Innovation and Simulation team (RESIST) and co-directs the Integrated Cardiovascular Pulmonary (ICAP) team. Her research focusses on combining experimental and numerical techniques to predict, quantify, and optimise aerosol dosimetry and the corresponding structure/function response in the human lung.
