Join Dr Himanshu Kaul, Royal Academy of Engineering Research Fellow at the University of Leicester, for the next in the Margaret Turner Warwick Lecture Series.
About the speaker
Dr Himanshu Kaul is a Royal Academy of Engineering Research Fellow at the University of Leicester with cross-appointments at the School of Engineering and Department of Respiratory Sciences.
He is a Biomedical Engineer with expertise in combining computational, clinical, and experimental approaches/data to gain systems-level understanding of biological phenomena and patient-specific mechanisms. His research contributions include amending the dynamic reciprocity principle to emphasize flow and transport as pillars of equal importance to the extracellular matrix in influencing cell fate, a virtual asthma patient that for the first time captured multiple asthma phenotypes, and successfully coupling gene regulatory network topology with tissue-level patterns to capture patterning observed during early human development.
His virtual patient has been recognised as a ‘Success Story’ by the Virtual Physiologic Human Institute and one of the ‘Top 5 innovations’ pioneered in Leicester. Kaul is the Founding CEO of LeicSurvey®: a software-as-a-service enterprise supporting the third sector in conducting inclusive feedback gathering and helping stakeholders evaluate the impact and social return on investment of their activities.
