What we do

Four areas of work.

An experienced electrophysiologist at the table while decisions are still reversible — whether the question is a catheter design, a training gap, or a study endpoint that won't hold up to review.

01

Clinical & Technical Advisory

Practicing-EP perspective on catheter, mapping, and energy-delivery technology — brought in early enough to change the outcome rather than validate it after the fact.

  • Device and catheter design review
  • Advisory board participation
  • Workflow and human-factors assessment
  • Clinical landscape analysis
02

Physician Education

Case-based teaching built for how electrophysiology is actually practiced — from fellowship curricula to hands-on technology sessions.

  • Procedural education and case support
  • Hands-on technology demonstration sessions
  • Fellowship and CME curriculum design
  • Simulation-based training programs
03

Evidence & Study Support

Getting the science right before it goes to a journal, a regulator, or a payer — from endpoint selection to the sentence reviewers will stop on.

  • Protocol and endpoint design review
  • Data interpretation and analysis planning
  • Manuscript and abstract development
  • Peer-review and editorial perspective
04

Simulation & Computational Modeling

CardaxEP, our whole-heart simulation platform, supports training, technology demonstration, and computational research.

  • Simulation-based demonstration
  • Custom arrhythmia scenarios
  • Competency assessment content
  • Research collaboration
In active development

The platform

CardaxEP

Four-chamber cardiac simulation with a complete virtual electrophysiology laboratory around it. Atria, ventricles, and the conduction system in one model — with catheters, electrograms, pacing, and imaging that behave the way they do in the lab.

The gap between reading about reentry and seeing a circuit collapse under a well-placed lesion is enormous. CardaxEP is a place to close it — where fellows can be wrong safely, engineers can iterate quickly, and hypotheses can be tested before anyone touches a patient.

Four-chamber model, sinus rhythm — surface ECG, multipolar, coronary sinus, His, high-density mapping and right ventricular channels live.

Whole-heart physiology

Atrial, ventricular, and conduction-system activation simulated together, so atrioventricular relationships emerge rather than being scripted.

The full recording system

Surface ECG, multipolar, coronary sinus, His, high-density mapping and ventricular channels — read the same way you would in the lab.

Programmed stimulation

Drive trains, extrastimuli, burst pacing and entrainment from any electrode, with the physiology responding in kind.

Simulated intracardiac imaging

A steerable intracardiac echo module rendered from the same anatomy, for catheter manipulation and standard-view training.

Mapping and ablation

Build activation maps, place lesions, and watch the circuit respond — block, slow, reorganize, or terminate.

Tunable substrate

Tissue properties move from normal toward diseased, so a single anatomy yields many distinct cases.

CardaxEP is an educational, research, and technology-demonstration platform. It is not a medical device and is not intended for diagnosis, treatment planning, or clinical decision-making.

Research

Toward the digital twin.

The same engine that powers training is being developed as a research tool: simulation informed by an individual patient's anatomy and electrophysiology, to ask what a specific substrate will do before it is ablated.

  • Patient-specific modeling Building simulations from clinical mapping and imaging data rather than a generic heart.
  • Mechanism and substrate Studying how reentrant circuits form, sustain, and fail in computational models.
  • Validation against the lab Comparing simulated behavior with clinical recordings to earn trust in the model.
