Konstantin Kotliar

Prof. Konstantin Kotliar is a Professor at Aachen University of Applied Sciences, specializing in Biomedical Engineering and Medical Statistics. He teaches courses in Mathematics, Advanced Medical Statistics, and Space Physiology. His research focuses on retinal vessel analysis to study microvascular dysfunction in diseases such as Fabry disease, diabetes, and Alzheimer’s. Kotliar’s work bridges ophthalmology, neuroscience, and cardiovascular science, with a particular interest in developing non-invasive diagnostic tools for early disease detection. His studies often involve collaborations with global health initiatives and clinical trials, such as the EndoAfrica-NWU Study. He has contributed to understanding neurovascular coupling mechanisms and their implications for neurological disorders.

Research interests include retinal vessel dynamics, cardiovascular risk stratification, and the application of statistical methods in medical diagnostics. Kotliar’s methodologies span from biomechanical modeling to machine learning-driven image analysis, emphasizing translational research with clinical relevance. His work has implications for improving therapies and preventive measures in chronic diseases.
