Mer om författaren

Professor Dr. Roustem Miftahof, MD, PhD, DSc is the Chair of Computational Biology and Medicine Centre in the College of Medicine and Medical Sciences at Arabian Gulf University in Manama, Bahrain. He earned the Doctor of Medicine degree with Honors in 1980 and the degree in Applied Mathematics with Honors in 1981. His PhD in Mathematical and Physical Sciences was related to Numerical simulation of stress-strain distribution in the human stomach and his DSc in Technical Sciences (post-habilitation dissertation) was on Peristaltic waves in biological shells.

Recensioner i media

“If you are a researcher seeking to develop or apply a computational model of the human stomach, this book would certainly make a great first (or second) point of reference.” (Anita T. Layton, SIAM Review, Vol. 61 (1), March, 2019)
