A significant challenge in climate models is discretisation error: even on cutting-edge hardware it is impossible to use fine enough discretisations to resolve underlying physics, which can have a significant impact on modelling results. This project will employ cutting-edge probabilistic methods to quantify discretization error in ocean and climate models.
The abyssal ocean circulation is key to Earth’s climate. Numerical models suggest that the circulation is slowing down dramatically. However, no approach exists to observe the circulation’s variability. This project will develop and apply the first approach to detect changes in the abyssal circulation from oceanic variables measurable from satellites.
In this unique PhD project, we aim to develop advanced AI models for creating cardiac digital twins such as virtual heart models. We will employ the dataset (imaging, ECG, electronic medical records, etc) collected from the patients, to accurately modelling the anatomy and simulate the function of patients' diseased hearts. These models, coupled with machine learning techniques, contribute to the identification of crucial mechanistic relationships and features that offer insights into the trajectory of a patient's heart condition.
