Unlock the Power of Multiscale Modeling in Biomedical Engineering

Authored by Dimitrios I. Fotiadis, “Multiscale Modelling in Biomedical Engineering” is a comprehensive guide to understanding the application of multiscale modeling in enhancing patient treatment and outcomes.

Foundations and Background of Multiscale Modeling

In this book, a team of accomplished biomedical professionals provides a robust treatment of the foundation and background of a general computational methodology for multi-scale modeling. The authors demonstrate how this methodology can be applied to various fields of biomedicine, with a particular focus on orthopedics and cardiovascular medicine.

From Molecules to Organs: A Hierarchical Approach

The book begins with a description of the relationship between multiscale modeling and systems biology, moving systematically upwards in hierarchical levels from the molecular to the cellular, tissue, and organ level. This approach provides a deep understanding of the complex interactions between different biological systems.

Applications of Multiscale Modeling in Biomedicine

The book examines multiscale modeling applications in specific functional areas, such as:

• Mechanotransduction and musculoskeletal systems
• Cardiovascular systems and disease modeling
• Biomedical imaging and nanoscale modeling at the molecular, cell, tissue, and organ levels

Practical Implementations and Future Directions

The book offers readers experiments and exercises to illustrate and implement the concepts contained within. Additionally, it provides:

• A thorough introduction to systems biology and multi-scale modeling, including a survey of various multi-scale methods and approaches and analyses of their application in systems biology
• Practical discussions of the mechanotransduction perspective, including recent progress and likely future challenges
• In-depth examinations of risk prediction in patients using big data analytics and data mining

An Essential Resource for Biomedical Professionals

“Multiscale Modelling in Biomedical Engineering” is perfect for undergraduate and graduate students of bioengineering, biomechanics, biomedical engineering, and medicine. It is also an essential reference for industry professionals and researchers seeking a comprehensive understanding of the basic engineering principles of biological systems.
