March 15, 2021 GMT
RICHMOND, Va., March 15, 2021 /PRNewswire/ United Network for Organ Sharing (UNOS), the nonprofit managing the nation’s organ transplant system, is partnering with the Virginia Modeling, Analysis & Simulation Center (VMASC) at Old Dominion University to develop a series of simulation models to examine the impact of possible changes to the transplant ecosystem.
Simulation modeling solves real-world challenges, enabling UNOS to leverage big data and predictive artificial intelligence to enhance research efforts. Feedback from these models will help researchers gain knowledge in anticipating and responding to potential threats and opportunities.
