Measuring individual vascular regulation mechanisms in the ICU hasn't been possible. CereBRLSIM changes that by using EHR data to estimate myogenic and metabolic function. What’s cool is these digital biomarkers differentiated patient phenotypes and even correlated with recovery outcomes.

Towards a physics informed digital twin to predict cerebral blood flow and cerebral vascular regulation - npj Digital Medicine npj Digital Medicine - Towards a physics informed digital twin to predict cerebral blood flow and cerebral vascular regulation

Physics-informed digital twins can out-predict standard ML for brain blood flow. The CereBRLSIM model forecasted hemodynamics in TBI patients more accurately than neuralODEs. Since brain damage can happen in <5 mins, having this kind of interpretable, real-time foresight is a massive win.
