Transcript

In his keynote talk at the COMSOL Conference 2018 Boston, Freddy Hansen of Abbott Laboratories discusses using multiphysics modeling to develop life-sustaining left ventricle assist devices (LVADs) for heart failure patients.

At Abbott, Freddy Hansen uses his modeling expertise to design complex medical devices that can be safely implanted in patients, and even improve their quality of life.
