The launch began with an open seminar provided by Dr Tom Jenkins, a Senior Clinical Lecturer and Consult Neurologist from the Sheffield Institute for Translational Neuroscience (SITraN), who described his work modelling pathophysiological mechanisms in motor neuron disease using MRI.
The MultiSim2 team then described the Clinical and Pre-clinical workflows that had developed been developed through MultiSim to the Scientific Advisory board and how these would be further developed by taking account of the muscles in their models in MultiSim2.
