This workshop will gather scientists and physicians from academia and hospitals from Sweden and abroad as well as potential industrial partners to assess the current state-of-the art fluid dynamics research with applications to understanding aerosol transport and respiratory disorders' spreading and potential treatments.

We have invited speakers from Lund University, Politechnique Montréal, Johns Hopkins, FLUIDDA, ECMO Centre - Karolinska University Hospital, Sorbonne Université, Luleå TU, University of Parma, Getinge AB, and colleagues from KTH.

The final program can be found at the link bellow:

Topics will include: aerosols transport, functional respiratory imaging, fluid dynamics of airway and lung disorders, respiratory fluid dynamics (including treatment), fragmentation and breakup mechanisms of non-Newtonian liquids with relevance to coughing, sneezing and droplets spreading.

Registration is free but should be done in advance for the Live Webinar at the link below: www.kth.se/form/5f85b4035b2837cd843ba098

The event is sponsored by KTH Life Science Technology platform.
