Stratification, Management and Guidance of Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy Patients using Hybrid Digital Twin Solutions

About the project

SMASH-HCM, an initiative focused on transforming the landscape of Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy (HCM). Our project aims to develop a cutting-edge digital-twin platform, integrating dynamic biophysical models and data-driven insights for personalized HCM stratification and improved disease management. Join us in advancing the state of the art in human digital-twins, delivering new insights, enhanced patient care, and a validated strategy through a pilot clinical trial.
