The mission of the Stanford Cardiovascular Biomechanics Lab is to:

Develop theoretical, computational, and experimental technology to quantify anatomic structure and physiologic response of the human vascular system under normal, diseased, and surgically-altered states.
Implement methods for improving vascular disease diagnosis, surgical planning, and prosthesis design.
Create transferable technology for use by medical professionals and disseminate results to scientific and medical communities.

Research in the Cardiovascular Biomechanics Lab focuses on:

Hemodynamics and Vascular Mechanics
Computer Aided Medical Planning
Device Design and Evaluation
