Ready Steady Learn w/ Behdad Ebrahimi: January 14, 2025

It's time to dust off the cobwebs and get those cogs turning in your noggin 'cause Ready Steady Learn is back for 2025 thanks to Waipapa Taumata Rau - The University of Auckland. Jonny is joined by Behdad Ebrahimi of the Auckland Bioengineering Institute to chat about his work with people with a rare, and also serious, lung condition. Chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension, or CTEPH for short, is a debilitating condition even post-surgery. Ebrahimi's work involves building computer models of lungs tailor-made to patients' own that can predict how blood flow and pressure will change following surgical intervention. Whakarongo mai nei!
