Pablo Lamata @pablolamata.bsky.social · 20/05/2025How to measure what we cannot observe? By model fitting We have studied 1000's subjects from @ukbiobank.bsky.social and learned how electrical conduction velocity and cellular parameters are affected by sex, aging or obesity, and explain why these factors are linked to a higher cardiac risks. 150
Pablo Lamata @pablolamata.bsky.social · 11/04/2025This is a value that won't shine in University rankings, but a value that funding bodies such as @wellcometrust.bsky.social or @royalsociety.org are strongly encouraging us to grow. Cheers for a strong international growth at this front! 010
