[School of Engineering PhD Scholarships] Self-supervising Heart AI to Detect Obstruction Without Stress

Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is the most common inherited heart disease, affecting 1 in 500 people. In many patients, the thickened heart muscle intermittently blocks blood flow out of the heart but – in a proportion of patients (up to 35%) - does so only under conditions of physical exertion.
