It has been brought to our attention that we need to make a small correction to the SSD Seminar below. Please find the correct title below: June 2, 2025 Monday 4pm - 5pm Room GRS001 GRS Building Schinkelstraße 2a, 52062 Aachen SSD Seminar Series Summer 2025 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Theodore von Kármán Fellow Professor Karol Miller University of Western Australia<https://research-repository.uwa.edu.au/en/persons/karol-miller>, Perth, Australia Biography: Karol Miller is a Winthrop Professor of Applied Mechanics at The University of Western Australia. Until 2023 he has been a Visiting Professor of Radiology at Harvard Medical School. Karol was born and educated in Warsaw, Poland. He has MSc in aerospace engineering, PhD in robotics and DSc in biomechanics. In 2002 Karol established the Intelligent Systems for Medicine Laboratory. ISML's mission is to work towards improving clinical outcomes through development and appropriate use of technology. It runs exciting research projects funded by the Australian Research Council, the National Health and Medical Research Council (Australia), the National Institute of Health (USA) and other national and international agencies. The overall objective of his research is to help creating methods and tools which will enable a new exciting era of personalised medicine. He is best known for his work on biomechanics of the brain. He is one of the world's most cited researcher in this area. Title: Computational Science Meets Medicine; Success Stories from Neuro and Vascular Surgery<https://www.irtg-mip.rwth-aachen.de/cms/irtg-mip/media-seminare/aktuelle-veranstaltungen/~bnefxp/ssd-extra-seminar-prof-karol-miller/?lidx=1> Mathematical modelling and computer simulation have proved tremendously successful in engineering. One of the greatest challenges for mechanists is to extend the success of computational mechanics to fields outside traditional engineering, in particular to biology, biomedical sciences and medicine. By extending the surgeon's ability to plan and carry out surgical interventions more accurately and with less trauma, Computer-Integrated Surgery (CIS) systems could help to improve clinical outcomes and the efficiency of health care delivery. CIS systems could have a similar impact on surgery to that long since realized in Computer-Integrated Manufacturing (CIM). In this lecture, I will demonstrate how computational science can be used to improve patient outcomes in brain and vascular surgery. I will conclude with suggestions for the future developments in the field and a vision for a new era of personalised medicine based on patient-specific scientific computations. ……………………………………………………………………………………………………………….
