Mr Roel Meiburg

I studied Biomedical Engineering at Eindhoven University of Technology (TU/e, the Netherlands), where I obtained my MSc degree in 2016. Afterwards, I began my PhD degree as part of the EurValve project, under the supervision of dr. Marcel Rutten and prof. Dr. Frans van de Vosse. The EurValve project aimed to build a decision support system for the treatment of valvular disease. During my PhD, I worked on important aspects of clinical modelling, such as sensitivity analysis, uncertainty quantification, data assimilation and inverse modelling. Outside of EurValve, I also worked on creating physical valve models as a research and educational tool in aortic stenosis. In March 2020, I joined CARIM as a postdoctoral fellow, focusing my research on the role of right ventricular function during various types of pacemaker therapies in heart failure patients.
