OverviewAI-generated summary
Neil B. Ingels' research centers on the biomechanics of the heart, particularly the mitral valve and its relationship with the left ventricle. His work utilizes engineering principles to understand and characterize the mitral-ventricular interaction, with the goal of optimizing repair strategies for cardiac conditions. Ingels has investigated in vitro models of the mitral valve, employing vacuum techniques to simulate valve closure and enable static trans-mitral pressure measurements. He has also explored the role of inertia in the function of mitral and aortic valves, challenging traditional assumptions about isovolumic periods.
His research interests extend to the application of engineering advances in medical contexts, including the use of materials like alumina as fiducial markers in computed tomography for soft tissue imaging. Ingels is a highly cited researcher with an h-index of 52 and over 8,700 citations across 234 publications. He has collaborated with several faculty members at the University of Arkansas at Fayetteville, including Morten Ø. Jensen, Sam E. Stephens, Hanne Jensen, and Alexis P. Applequist, on multiple shared publications.
