Biophysical Models for Medical Applications (BioMMedA)

Prof. Patrick Segers welcomes you at the website of BioMMedA, the research group on Biophysical Models for Medical Applications. BioMMedA is a research group of the department of Electronics and Information systems (ELIS) of the Faculty of Engineering and Architecture (FEA) at the Ghent University (UGent).

The scope of our research ranges from simulations at the molecular scale to study membranes, (glyco)proteins, and ligands to the study of flow and transport processes of blood and biological fluids in various organ systems (cardiovascular, brain, liver, kidney, lymphatics) in humans and animals models (zebrafish, mouse, large mammals) and artificial organs, as well as biomechanical aspects of organ systems and medical devices.

This is an overview of our masterthesis topics for 2025-2026.
