Additional Location Details:

I (Taylor Baum) will be presenting a set of systems and methods that support and automate cardiovascular management decision-making in the OR and ICU. Most excitingly, this will be the first public look at my main PhD thesis contribution: an adaptive closed-loop system for arterial blood pressure control. In experiments in swine, we achieved mean absolute error levels of just 1- 2 mmHg (less than the pressure change you might experience simply standing up) using phenylephrine (to raise arterial blood pressure) and clevidipine (to lower it), where the system is built for each individual patient or animal using no prior subject-specific information.

Virtual Option: Please fill out the RSVP form for Zoom details.

A reception will follow immediately afterward in the Area 4 courtyard from 4:00 – 5:00 pm EST.

This presentation is open to the public, and a virtual option will be available. However, if you attend in person… there may be wigs. No, you don’t get more context than that. You’ll just have to come and see.
