Dr. Noelia Grande Gutiérrez

Biography

Noelia Grande Gutiérrez is an Assistant Professor at Carnegie Mellon University in the Department of Mechanical Engineering. Her research interests lie at the intersection of computational engineering and cardiovascular medicine, focusing on the development and application of multiphysics models that support clinical decision-making and provide novel insights into cardiovascular disease. She graduated with a doctorate in mechanical engineering from Stanford University in 2019. Prior to that, she completed a master’s degree in engineering sciences at UC San Diego, a master’s in biomedical engineering at the University of Barcelona, and a bachelor’s in aerospace engineering from the Technical University of Madrid. Grande Gutiérrez was awarded fellowships from the American Heart Association and la Caixa Foundation. She has served as a postdoctoral research fellow at the Diamond Lab at the University of Pennsylvania, where she worked on developing a new multiscale computational framework to investigate patient-specific thrombosis in coronary artery disease patients, specifically focusing on the initial platelet deposition during artery occlusion.
