Proceedings of the Annual Congress of the Asia-Pacific Society for Artificial Organs: APSAO: Making breakthrough via multidisciplinary approach

About

Dr. Mohd Jamil Mohamed Mokhtarudin received a Bachelor of Biomedical Engineering from Universiti Malaya in 2012 and then continued a DPhil in Engineering Science at Wolfson College Oxford University from 2013 to 2017. He is now serving as a Senior Lecturer at the Faculty of Manufacturing and Mechatronic Engineering Technology Universiti Malaysia Pahang Al-Sultan Abdullah. His research expertise is in the area of mathematical modelling and computational simulation of the human organ and biological system involving structural mechanics fluid-structural interface and multiphysics and multiscale modelling. Dr. Azam Ahmad Bakir is a Mechanical Engineering Lecturer in the University of Southampton Malaysia. He has received his PhD degree in Biomedical Engineering from the University of New South Wales Australia. His works previously involved with the development of a framework for simulating Multiphysics phenomena of human heart namely cardiac electrophysiology myocardial mechanics and intraventricular haemodynamic where the physics interaction is necessary for an efficient heart function. In addition to heart modelling Dr. Azam is also involved with studying the effect various electroconvulsive therapy (ECT) protocols using computational model to enhance the efficacy of ECT in treating patients with severe depression. His research interest is in the field of computational modelling of biological tissues and organs with the goal of providing a safer testbed for future experimentation and designing better medical treatment. Dr. Andrew Stephens is a Research Fellow at the Department of Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering Monash University Australia. He is currently investigating the improvement of mechanical cardio-respiratory and smart emergency medical devices through sensing monitoring control and AI. He is the deputy director of CREATElab (Cardio-Respiratory Engineering And TEchnology laboratory) situated at the Victorian Heart Hospital. He is also a council member for the Asia Pacific Society of Artificial Organs. Dr. Nadiah Sulaiman is a senior lecturer at Centre for Tissue Engineering and Regenerative Medicine (CTERM) Faculty of Medicine UKM. She is currently CTERM Head of Academic Frontiers overseeing and coordinating postgraduate students and courses offered in CTERM. Nadiah obtained her doctoral degree at Bristol Medical School University of Bristol UK. Her research work revolves around vascular and cardiovascular tissue engineering and regenerative medicine.
