Research Focus
Computational modeling of the cardiac myocyte to understand the molecular basis of arrhythmias; machine learning in critical care medicine to identify those patients who require urgent care
About
Professor Raimond Winslow serves as the Director of Life Science and Medicine Research at the Roux Institute in Portland, Maine. He joined the Roux Institute from his role as the Raj and Neera Singh Professor of Biomedical Engineering at The Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine, where he was the Founding Director of the Institute for Computational Medicine at The Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine and Whiting School of Engineering. Prof. Winslow’s research is focused on two areas. The first is the use of computational modeling to understand the molecular mechanisms of cardiac arrhythmias, or irregular heartbeats, and sudden cardiac death. The second is the use of modeling methods to predict both the evolution of a patient’s health status over time and the impending occurrence of significant adverse events before they occur.
