Introducing HumMod

A model of human cardiovascular and renal physiology was developed at UMMC in the laboratories of Arthur Guyton starting in 1972, culminating in a general model of blood pressure control that has guided research and pharmaceutical and medical device development. The initial model was developed by Dr. Thomas Coleman, then a Ph.D. student under Professor Guyton.  Since then, Dr. Coleman has expanded the model (HUMAN in early 1990s followed by QCP in 2005).   The current version of the model, HumMod, is based on QCP and has been in development for about 15 years.  

The HumMod engine can now run on desktop(Windows) or server platforms that makes it easily accessible from all over the world. Future use will allow  a user to run in silico clinical trials, generate data within a certain population, and to improve efficacy. Opportunities are endless due to the robust and comprehensive system.

 

Multiple users and accessibility

Due to HumMod's server capabilities a company can run the simulations as often as they wish and allow for multiple users at once. This will enhance the experience to emulate a realistic healthcare situation, (add a sentence here about the comprehensive nature) HumMod leads the way in simulation technology. 

 

Virtual authenticity

HumMod is based on algorithms that can generate thousands of unique virtual patients with different pathogies such as hypertension, heart failure, or diabetes, creating limitless possibilities for physiological simulations. The user can observe time dependent responses that may not be predictable at first glance.
