Introduction to Computational Physiology in Simulation

3 credits

Introduces computational physiology in a guided project-based manner with lectures reinforcing the ideas. Details the physiology of three primary systems in the body: cardiovascular, respiratory, and renal with a focus on functionality and dysregulation due to trauma. Uses basic mathematics to convey ideas on fluid dynamics, basic system functionality, and how perturbing these systems results in changes in behavior. Offered: A.
