Jorik Amesz

Jorik Amesz is a Researcher at Erasmus MC specializing in Cardiothoracic Surgery. His work focuses on advancing cardiac research through innovative methodologies like living myocardial slices and ex situ heart perfusion.

• Heart failure modeling
• Biomimetic tissue engineering
• Computational hemodynamics

His research bridges biomedical engineering with clinical cardiology, developing personalized surgical tools and studying myocardial contractility in end-stage heart failure patients. Recent projects include 3D in vitro models and smart computational systems for coronary blood flow optimization.

Publications demonstrate expertise in myocardial slice viability, cardiac biomechanics, and normothermic perfusion technologies. Collaborations span institutions in cardiovascular disease, transplantation, and tissue preservation domains.
