PhD thesis defense Yannick Roesch
The ARTORG Center congratulates Yannick Rösch for successfully defending his PhD thesis titled “Efficiency of intracoronary drug infusion into myocardial microcirculation with microvascular obstruction: in vitro study with a multiscale flow model” on 21 March 2023! His project focused on assessing fluid dynamics in an in vitro multiscale benchtop model, representing the coronary circulation as well as microvascular obstruction (MVO) frequently occurring after myocardial infarction with the aim of helping to develop treatment strategies.
