    Kaurin, Dimitri (Data de defensa: 2018-10-29)

    We examine a classical problem in soft-matter physics: the specific adhesion between deformable elastic objects, such as vesicles, mediated by mobile adhesion molecules. This problem is relevant to cell-cell adhesion. To ...

    Multimodal ventricular tachycardia analysis : towards the accurate parametrization of predictive HPC electrophysiological computational models 

    López-Yunta, Mariña (Data de defensa: 2018-07-30)

    After a myocardial infarction, the affected areas of the cardiac tissue suffer changes in their electrical and mechanical properties. This post-infarction scar tissue has been related with a particular type of arrhythmia: ...
