Stroke: A Global Challenge in Need of Innovation

Stroke is the third leading cause of both death and disability worldwide, but unfortunately, current diagnostic tools are unsatisfactory. Dr Roustem Miftahof and Dr Alexander Hermann at Advanced Biosimulation Technologies LLC, USA, are overcoming the limitations of existing diagnostic tools with the development of the Neuro-Glia-Vascular Unit Engine. This transformative tool for clinicians and biomedical researchers provides patient-specific health insights with the potential to improve care not only in stroke but across a range of neurological disorders.
