Simulation of Mass Transport as a Physiological Process in Human Organs

Professor Unger, Professor Ioannidis and in collaboration with Robert Enouy have research interests in developing unstructured mesh models of human organs to replicate details of their spatial geometry and internal structure. This will permit detailed resolution of the mass transport of components between the various interstitial fluids in within the pore structure, and in contact with the exterior of these organs. A specific organ of interest is the kidney. A key attribute of the model is to simulate the reactive transport of components on the tissue surfaces. An outcome of our approach is to mechanistically assess pharmaceutical dosing as a strategy to effect an improvement in patients’ health.

The University of Waterloo acknowledges that much of our work takes place on the traditional territory of the Neutral, Anishinaabeg and Haudenosaunee peoples. Our main campus is situated on the Haldimand Tract, the land granted to the Six Nations that includes six miles on each side of the Grand River. Our active work toward reconciliation takes place across our campuses through research, learning, teaching, and community building, and is centralized within our Indigenous Initiatives Office.
