Virtual-Integrated Twin for Autonomous Lifesaving (VITAL)
Summary
DARPA is soliciting innovative approaches to develop continuously updating digital twin models of the cardiovascular system that integrate patient data with biological physics for real‑time simulation and outcome prediction. The VITAL program aims to create causal, prediction‑driven decision support tools that enable clinicians and future autonomous systems to evaluate treatment options before they are applied, potentially improving outcomes in acute, chronic, and emergent care settings.
