Numi Sveinsson Cepero

Biography

Numi Sveinsson Cepero is a Postdoctoral Researcher at the Oden Institute for Computational Engineering and Sciences at The University of Texas at Austin. His research focuses on integrating artificial intelligence, medical imaging, and computational modeling to study physiology and advance medicine.

He earned his Ph.D. in Mechanical Engineering from the University of California, Berkeley, where his work with Prof. Shawn Shadden combined biomechanics, machine learning, and image-based modeling to improve vascular segmentation and simulation. His doctoral projects, SeqSeg and MeshGrow, introduced open-source tools for automated vascular reconstruction and simulation-ready mesh generation from medical images.

At UT Austin, Numi is expanding his research to explore clinically driven applications of AI and simulation, with the goal of developing digital tools that bridge computational models and patient care.
