Axel Loewe

Dr. Axel Loewe is a Professor at the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT) within the Institute of Biomedical Engineering (IBT). He leads the Computer Models of the Heart research group, focusing on creating realistic digital twins of the human heart to improve diagnosis and treatment of cardiac arrhythmias like atrial fibrillation.

• Research emphasizes simulation studies for clinical applications, regulatory compliance (e.g., FDA requirements), and medical device optimization (e.g., pacemakers).
• His work intersects with machine learning, enabling data generation for algorithm training and personalized risk assessment for cardiac disorders.
