Professor blends engineering and healthcare through research
Though likely not the first thing to come to mind when discussing the field of engineering, Kennesaw State University associate professor Philippe Sucosky said there is much to unlock by viewing the human body from an engineer’s perspective. The cardiovascular system, for instance, really isn’t all that different from the typical plumbing inside a house. “You have a bunch of arteries and tubes connected together forming a complete system, so when you study the cardiovascular tree, there really isn’t much of a difference from studying the flow in a mechanical network of pipes,” said Sucosky, who teaches mechanical engineering in the Southern Polytechnic College of Engineering and Engineering. “The connection between engineering and healthcare is very literal in that sense.” – October 05, 2020
