  5. IN SILICO SCIENCE

  6. In Vivo, In Vitro, In Silico • Systems Biology – Human Genome Project, Protein function, Virtual Physiological Human, Blue Brain, … • Engineering – Aerospace, civilian, automotive, domestic, … • Environment – Climate, weather, pollution, …. – Chemistry • Drug design, novel pathways, … • Physics – Particle Physics, Xray treatment, Astrophysics, ….

  7. Cardiac Modelling Sher, Gavaghan, Rodriguez, Oxford Mcculloch, Mihaylova, Kerckhoffs, UCSD • Heart disease still leading cause of death • Understanding the underlying physiological mechanisms is cheaper and faster when experimental studies are performed together with mathematical models & computer simulations • Studying pathologies • Developing & Testing drugs

  8. Looking at heart failure? • Leading Causes of HF Include: Normal Ventricular – High blood pressure Rhythm Fibrillation Heart Cross Section – Myocardial Infarctions – Mitral valve disorders – Conduction disorders • Revelli studied – Left Bundle Branch Block – Effects 25% of all HF patients – Increases risk of sudden death considerably • Dan Stokeley studied *Diagram 2 – Long QT Diagram 2- : http://www.healthsystem.virginia.edu/Internet/afibcenter/whatis_afib.cfm Courtesy Scott Revelli, PRIME student

  9. Cardiac Modeling • Mathematical models – Whole organ simulation – Ion movement in single cells – Cardiac mechanics – Fluid flow Movie: Courtesy Andrew McCulluch, UCSD

  11. MAKING THE WORLD A LITTLE SMALLER

  12. Use of Video conference technology (Turn of the century)

  13. HD Video Seminar Room I’ve participated in numerous video conferences to date but nothing like this. The quality was so high that the experience was almost as if we were all in the same room. The massively increased bandwidth was transformational. Quantity begat quality. Alan Finkel, Chancellor, Monash Univ

  15. INTERNATIONAL ENGAGEMENT THROUGH STUDENT INTERNSHIPS

  16. PRIME @ Monash • Engaged in PRIME since 2004 • Projects range from bio-engineering, theoretical chemistry to computer science • Has underpinned long lasting academic collaborations – Publications – Presentations at conferences • Undergraduate students without research experience!

  17. PRIME @ Monash: Nearly always a PRIME number! Melissa DiCiero-Monash

  18. PRIME @ Monash • Projects usually involve application of our software (Nimrod) to an interesting application • Leverage investment in PRAGMA infrastructure

  19. PRIME Projects – Monash 2008 • Analyzing Adverse Effects of the Antidepressant Emsam in Silico, Haley-Hunter Zinck • Binding Energy and Mechanisms of Conjugated Enediynes with a Ruthenium complex, Lynn Tai • Modeling Calcium Ion Transients in the Sarcoplasmic Reticulum, Arielle Yablonovitch • Effects of Tissue Level Parameter Variation on Cardiac Output, Randy Lee • Transmural Heterogeneity of Mechanics in the Normal Heart, M. Amalia Prada Fernandez • Medical Research Data Visualization on Tiled Display Wall, Sirvard Nshanyan • Simulation of Particle Incorporation during Electrocodeposition Process, David Allen Wong

  20. Lead placement for CRT Revelli, Kirchoffs, UCSD • Study left bundle branch block • Determine the optimal pacing sites for CRT • 2 or 3 leads are inserted into the heart • Challenges: – Placing the leads – Scar tissue effects pacing

  21. PRIME embedded in local events

  22. MURPA @ UCSD • A research oriented ‘summer mode’ undergraduate subject that allows students to complete a research project abroad; • Collaborative research between Monash academics and peers overseas; • A video conference based seminar stream that imports real time presentations from leading international researchers;
