NTT Research and Harvard Collaborate on Cardiovascular Bio Digital Twin

NTT Research, Inc., a division of NTT announced that its Medical & Health Informatics (MEI) Lab has entered a three-year joint research agreement with the Harvard John A. Paulson School of Engineering and Applied Sciences (SEAS). NTT Research scientists will work with the Disease Biophysics Group (DBG) at SEAS to engineer a model of the human heart, elucidate fundamental laws of muscular pumps, and apply lessons learned to a cardiovascular (CV) bio digital twin model. The agreement commenced on July 1, 2022. The principal investigator of the research project is Harvard Professor Kevin Kit Parker, who leads DBG, an interdisciplinary team with significant experience building micro-physiological systems to approximate the physiology and pathophysiology of the human heart. NTT Research and Harvard Collaborate on Cardiovascular Bio Digital Twin (aithority.com)
