Matteo Salvador
Postdoctoral Scholar, Cardiology
BioMatteo Salvador is a Postdoctoral Researcher in the Cardiovascular Biomechanics Computation Lab led by Prof. Alison Marsden.
His main research topics are related to cardiac modeling, model-order reduction and uncertainty quantification.
Matteo Salvador received his Bachelor of Science in Mathematical Engineering ans his Master of Science in Computational Science and Engineering from Politecnico di Milano.
He completed his PhD in Mathematical Models and Methods for Engineering at Politecnico di Milano under the supervision of Prof. Alfio Quarteroni. He worked in the framework of the iHEART project, whose aim is to create a fully integrated human heart for the accurate and efficient numerical simulation of the cardiac function. Specifically, he developed comprehensive mathematical models blended with novel numerical methods and Scientific Machine Learning for cardiac electromechanics. -
Seth Andrew Sharp
Postdoctoral Scholar, Endocrinology and Metabolism
BioSeth is a Postdoctoral Fellow in the Translational Genomics of Diabetes lab located at Stanford Research Park under the supervision of Professor Anna Gloyn. Seth completed a B.E. in Applied Mathematics before studying a PhD at the University of Exeter with Dr Richard Oram where he researched the use of genetics to predict common autoimmune disorders. Seth studied at the Alan Turing Institute in London where he used machine learning and artificial intelligence methods to predict autoimmunity and has worked collaboratively to improve screening of Type 1 diabetes from birth. Seth's postdoctoral studies focus on using genetic, transcriptomic and epigenetic data to understand the mechanisms by which both Type 1 and Type 2 diabetes occur in the human pancreas. He is also interested in ways to quantify genetic risk such as polygenic risk scores and their application in both research and clinic.

Jason Szafron
Postdoctoral Scholar, Cardiology
BioJason Szafron is a Parker B. Francis Fellow in the lab of Alison Marsden co-mentored by Marlene Rabinovitch studying growth and remodeling in the pulmonary vasculature. He completed his PhD in biomedical engineering at Yale University as an NSF Graduate Research Fellow, where his dissertation work focused on the design of tissue engineered vascular grafts for use in the Fontan procedure. His long-term research goal is to use validated computer models to understand disease origins and develop novel treatment approaches for cardiovascular disease.
