In Goettingen, we are a group of physicists, biologists and engineers who are interested in interdisciplinary research especially biofluidics and biomechanics. In this talk, I will present our efforts on two of the most important organs: brain and heart. For the brain, a temporospatial flow network of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF), induced by motile cilia in the ventricular system of mammalian brain, is found and studied both experimentally and numerically. These studies aim at understanding to how this transport system is established and how cilia-mediated transport assists targeted delivery of CSF components to specific brain regions. For the heart, we are investigating the heart muscle as well as cardiac fiber both theoretically and experimentally. In silico models of the heart are then used for personalized therapies for heart regeneration, such as implantation of engineered heart muscle.
