Overview
My research in biomedical simulation and high-performance computing focuses on the development of new computational tools that we use to provide insight into the localization and development of human diseases ranging from atherosclerosis to cancer.

Optimizing Non-invasive Fractional Flow Reserve Estimation with Machine Learning-Enhanced 1D Hemodynamic Modeling.
Journal article Cardiovascular engineering and technology · August 2026 Patient-specific computational models exhibit strong concordance with invasively measured fractional flow reserve (FFR)-the clinical gold standard for diagnosing coronary ischemia. However, current modeling techniques frequently rely on computationally int ... Full text CitePhysiological Assessment of Coronary Artery Disease.

Conference Pasc 2026 Platform for Advanced Scientific Computing Conference · June 28, 2026 We introduce GPU Halo Replay, a solver-aware in situ framework for stencil-based applications that creates a lossless simulation "twin"for advanced visualization and analysis. By decoupling analysis from the primary simulation and delegating it to dedicate ... Full text CiteRecent Grants
