Project: STRIVE – Simulation-based TRIals for Vascular trEatment

About the project

Cardiovascular diseases remain the leading cause of death worldwide, yet current clinical approval for disease treatment, especially for novel implants, relies on population-based studies that overlook individual patient variability. In silico trials — computer-based simulations of clinical scenarios — offer a powerful alternative: by creating digital twins of patients and implants, treatment outcomes can be tested rapidly and safely, without invasive procedures or large-scale clinical studies.

STRIVE aims to develop a regulatory-aligned computational framework for personalized vascular interventions, with an initial focus on intracranial aneurysms. The project combines advanced simulation methods, experimental validation, and close collaboration with ...
