Accurately measuring blood flow is critical to our understanding of cardiovascular disease and clinical decision making, but reliable data is still difficult to generate in large quantities. An NSF grant will support bioengineer Amir Arzani in improving the accuracy of cardiovascular flow computer models through machine learning. The grant will also enable his team to create a STEM education program leveraging visualization and storytelling to show the ‘hidden beauty’ in fluid mechanics computer modeling.
