EuroPhysiome Projects
Step has gathered the existing European projects which are working under the Physiome umbrella.
STEP aims to frame the Physiome Project effort at European level toward the developement of the so called Virtual Physiological Human (VPH). On one hand STEP is away from the idea to keep the European labs isolated from the worldwilde context; on the other one it is focused on increasing coherence within Europe.
STEP co-ordinates the actions of the following EuroPhysiome Projects:
- Cardiome - heart structure & function based at the University of Oxford
- Epitheliome - epithelial tissue, based at the University of Sheffield
- Giome - gastroenterology, based in Aalborg Hospital
- Living Human - musculo-skeletal, based at Istituti Ortopedici Rizzoli
- ULB Virtual Human - musculo-skeletal, based at Université libre de Brussels
- Renal Physiome - kidney, based at Centre National de la Recherche Scientifique - LaMI
- Physiological Flow Network - physiological flows, based at University of Nottingham
