Umberto Villa, PhD

Research Assistant Professor, McKelvey School of Engineering

Professor Villa’s research focuses on mathematical modeling of physical, biological, and socio-environmental systems. He is interested in the integration of data and measurements with computational models to build predictive models with quantified uncertainty. His research includes medical imaging and mathematical modeling of biological systems (specifically, hemodynamics) and in the future, he hopes to include modeling of infection diseases spread, social and population behaviors.
