Virtual-Integrated Twin for Autonomous Lifesaving (VITAL)

The Virtual-Integrated Twin for Autonomous Lifesaving (VITAL) program aims to develop continuously updating digital twin models of the cardiovascular system, combining patient data with biological physics to simulate possible interventions and predict their outcomes in real-time. The program seeks innovative approaches to address challenges in developing these models, with the goal of establishing a foundation for causal, prediction-driven decision support in medicine. Key aspects of the program include: • Developing digital twin models that combine patient data with biological physics • Simulating possible interventions and predicting their outcomes in real-time • Enabling clinicians and future autonomous systems to evaluate treatment options before they are applied • Shifting medical care from reactive assessment to anticipatory intervention The proposal abstract should include a summary of the technical goals, technical challenges, technical ability, estimated cost, and references.
