Dr. Miga joined the faculty of the Biomedical Engineering Department in the fall of 2000.
His expertise is in the area of numerical methods and biomedical modeling and is currently the
director of the Biomedical Modeling Laboratory. The focus of the Biomedical Modeling Laboratory
is on developing new paradigms in detection, diagnosis and treatment of disease through the
integration of computational models into clinical decision-making practices. He teaches courses
in numerical methods, computational modeling for biomedical applications and biomechanics.
The Biomedical Modeling Laboratory is always looking for new team members. The skills of the team are usually focused on numerical analysis, mathematics, computer graphics, programming, medical imaging and numerical solutions to differential equations. The group has a wide focus including biofluid, biomechanics, and electropotential applications. If you like to explore the potential of high performace computing or the power of computer simulation within the context of biomedical engineering, than the BML may be the place for you. Additionally, if you are interested in working at developing new technology in surgical research, our group does substantial in vivo work for validation purposes.
