Bridging Research and Innovation

Giacomo Talevi is a biomedical engineer and PhD researcher at the Heart Rhythm Management Centre (VUB/UZ Brussel), specializing in cardiac electrophysiology and advanced biomedical technologies.

With an MSc in Biomedical Engineering from Vrije Universiteit Brussel, his research focuses on cutting-edge cardiac mapping techniques, 3D patient-specific surgical guides, computational modeling, and electroanatomical reconstruction.

Giacomo's work bridges fundamental research and clinical application, contributing to publications on atrial fibrillation ablation, conduction system pacing, and innovative cardiac imaging methods alongside leading electrophysiologists Prof. Carlo de Asmundis and Prof. Gian-Battista Chierchia.

His multidisciplinary expertise spans mathematical modeling (Topological Data Analysis, Sheaf Theory), full-stack software development, 3D bioprinting, and photogrammetric reconstruction.

Beyond cardiac research, Giacomo has developed digital solutions across healthcare (academic management systems, biofuel cell technology) and agritech (precision agriculture platforms). Through Innovatech Health, he translates advanced scientific knowledge into practical innovations for medtech companies, research institutions, and healthcare organizations worldwide.
