Dasi's research featured on local news

Lakshmi Dasi, associate professor, Biomedical Engineering (BME) and Hoda Hatoum, post-doc, BME, were recently featured on the local news for their team’s breakthrough research in collaboration with physicians at The Ohio State University’s, Wexner Medical Center.

The research team is led by Dr. Lakshmi Prasad Dasi, who is a well-trained investigator with expertise in heart valve engineering and cardiovascular biomechanics, and inventor of several heart valve technologies. The team is using the mitral valve to run simulations on 3D printed aortic valves, tailor made from the CT scans of patients with aortic stenosis or the narrowing of the heart valve - who need surgery. This is to study the flow pattern which helps heart surgeons to figure out which option is best to avoid any complications such as heart attacks and strokes for patients. 

Congratulations Dr. Dasi and team!
