Presentation, objectives and target audience

The 1st Summer School on Reduced-Order and Data-Driven Models in Biomechanics will be held in Figueres, Spain, the 7th to 11th April 2025. The summer school is organized jointly between Mines Saint-Étienne (France), UPC and CIMNE (Spain) and the Figueres City Council. We will cover the main state of the art tools in reduced order modelling and data driven simulation in biomechanics, with a special emphasis in cardiovascular medicine. Theoretical and hands on tutorials will present a wide range of topics such as: blood flow modelling using 0D models, boundary conditions and parameter estimation in haemodynamics, deep learning based reduced order models for parametrized PDE’S, parameter estimation in ODEs and 3D-0D coupled problems, automated model discovery, digital twins in cardiology with emphasis on electrophysiology, computational models of endovascular interventions, machine-learning based virtual field methods. The summer school is targeted to PhD students, postdoctoral researchers, academics but also scientists and engineers from industry that wish to update their knowledge in the above areas.
