- This paper describes a novel thermoregulation model to help clinicians designing patient-specific hypothermic treatments for neonates that suffer from lack of oxygen at birth. The research originated from a collaboration with the Queen Charlotte’s Hospital, Hammersmith, London. A new collaboration with Dr Renato Rozenthal, from the Federal University of Rio de Janeiro, is currently under discussion with a view to designing a cheaper hypothermic treatment funded by the Brazilian Ministry of Health. Wrobel gave a keynote address on this topic at the XXXVII Ibero-Latin American Conference on Computational Methods in Engineering in Brasilia in 2016, with around 500 participants.
