Complex Structure and Dynamics of the Heart (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9783319122311)

Dr. Philip Bittihn studied physics at the Georg-August-Universit舩 Gtingen as a scholar of the Studienstiftung des deutschen Volkes (German National Academic Foundation). In 2009, he obtained his diploma with honors from the university, before joining the MPRG Biomedical Physics at the Max Planck Institute for Dynamics and Self-Organization, Gtingen. He received his PhD in June 2013 for theoretical and experimental work on the complex structure and dynamics of the heart and is currently a postdoctoral scholar at the BioCircuits Institute, University of California, San Diego. His interests include the nonlinear dynamics and emergent phenomena of biological systems, numerical simulations, partial differential equations and experimental data analysis.
