Current Students
Alexey Orlov
PhD student, Marie Skladowska-Curie Doctoral Research Fellow.
Use an experimental-computational approach to investigate the effect of negative pressure wound therapy (NPWT) on states of tissue strain and stress in the wound-bed and peri-wound skin.
Maayan Lustig
Ph.D. student
Research topic: A computational model for evaluating the efficacy of protective vests in preventing non-penetrating combat-related injuries
Angela Grigatti
PhD student, Marie Skladowska-Curie Doctoral Research Fellow.
Field of research: Prevention of pressure ulcers.
Adi Lustig
M.Sc. Student
Design, develop and build a robotic phantom of a chronic injury, simulating an active wound environment at the thermodynamic, mechanical and use conditions which
duplicates real-world settings.
Field of interest: Machine learning algorithm development in prevention and treatment in chronic wounds.
