Overview

Services

Dr. LaDisa was a postdoc at Stanford University for 2.5 years after earning his PhD in Biomedical Engineering. He previously directed the Visualization Laboratory and Laboratory for Translational, Experimental and Computational Cardiovascular Research at Marquette University. He now serves as Director of the Computational Engineering and Visualization Program for the Section of Cardiology in the Department of Pediatrics at the Medical College of Wisconsin. Dr. LaDisa’s lab is supported by grants to study cardiovascular disease, engineer treatments, and uniquely visualize results, while training the next generation of scientists. Together with his mentors and trainees, he has published over 60 peer-reviewed articles and raised ~$4M in extramural funding.
