MIMESIS

 

 

 

Computational Anatomy & Simulation for Medicine

The MIMESIS research team works on a set of scientific challenges in the field of scientific computing, data assimilation, machine learning and control with the objective of creating real-time digital twins of an organ.

Our main application domains are surgical training and surgical guidance during complex interventions. Our primary clinical objectives are hepatic surgery, lung surgery, and neuro-stimulation.

MIMESIS is an Inria research team located in Strasbourg. It is also part of the ICube MLMS team.
