Agenda:

• v-Patient Walkthrough

• v-Patient Q&A

• General Heart Hackathon Q&A 

We’re excited to announce a special v‑Patient Onboarding & Q&A Session for Heart Hackathon participants. This dynamic session is designed to give teams an early edge, offering a clear, intuitive walkthrough of the simulation tools they’ll rely on during the event. Whether you're new to in‑silico modelling or looking to explore advanced workflows, this is the perfect place to level up before the hackathon begins!

Leading the session is Petra Stefanec, a UI/UX Engineer at Virtonomy GmbH whose work sits at the intersection of medical innovation and cutting‑edge digital design. Petra has been instrumental in shaping the intuitive experience behind Virtonomy’s v‑Patient platform, making complex physiological modelling accessible to diverse research teams worldwide. Her expertise, clarity, and energy consistently elevate onboarding experiences — this is a session you won’t want to miss.

v‑Patient plays a transformative role in digital twinning, enabling teams to explore cardiovascular physiology, test device interactions, and simulate clinical scenarios with remarkable realism. For those working on Total Artificial Heart (TAH) concepts and related haemodynamic challenges, these tools provide a unique opportunity to experiment and innovate in a risk‑free virtual environment. This onboarding will equip participants with the confidence, insight, and practical skills to bring their hackathon concepts to life using next‑generation simulation technology.
