Offer Description
Would you like to participate in an innovative cardiac research project?
Join the Heart Rhythm Disease Institute (Liryc), University of Bordeaux! Liryc is organized into clinical research teams that work closely with fundamental science teams. Its aim is to offer a unique medical research platform and a training centre for students and researchers from all over the world.
In collaboration with the Carmen team, part of the Modelling Team, we design and analyze new numerical models to simulate the electrical and mechanical activity of the heart.
In close collaboration with the French National Institute for Research in Computer Science and Control (INRIA), and as part of the European SimCardioTest project, we are recruiting a Post-Doc fellow in sensitivity analysis in an electrocardiology model.
Main activities:
Your mission will be to perform sensitivity and uncertainty propagation analysis in a pacemaker model of cardiac excitation. The model consists of partial differential equations of reaction – diffusion (bidomain model) coupled by boundary conditions to differential equations.
Approximate solutions are calculated by finite elements using a C++ calculation code (CEPS – Cardiac Electrophysiology Solver).
This numerical model is used to calculate stimulation threshold curves called Lapicque curves.
The research project consists in studying the sensitivity of the Lapicque curves to the different parameters of the model and studied the effect of the uncertainties of the most influential parameters.
The model was established in the first part of the project. We now need to conduct model validation activities based on the exploitation of experimental data and this sensitivity analysis. These activities are guided by ASME (American Society Of Mechanical Engineering) V&V 40. They have been described in detail in a project deliverable.
