Bio: We are a student-driven cardiac engineering team focused on developing a fully implantable total artificial heart. Our members come from mechanical, biomedical, electrical, and software engineering, working together to design, simulate, and prototype high-performance systems. We combine CAD development, CFD analysis, control systems, and experimental validation to create safe and efficient solutions for end-stage heart failure. Through structured teamwork and data-driven design decisions, we aim to translate engineering concepts into a clinically relevant device that improves long-term patient survival.
