Research summary
AI-generated

Craig J. Goergen studies cardiovascular disease using advanced imaging and engineering tools, including ultrasound, magnetic resonance imaging, and animal (mainly mouse and rat) models of heart failure, pressure overload, and aortic aneurysms. His work combines biomechanics, tissue analysis, and new technologies such as drug-delivery microrobots and wearable sensors to understand how the heart and blood vessels change in disease. Much of the research aims to measure and predict how cardiac tissue remodels and recovers.

Collaborators per year
Distinct co-authors at Indiana University each year — a rough indication of whether the group around this researcher has been growing or contracting. An estimate from co-authorship, not a roster: collaborators are not necessarily lab members, and recent years can be under-counted while indexing catches up.
