Momčilo Prodanović

Momčilo Prodanović's research includes the development of computer models of biophysical systems and tissues at different temporal and spatial scales, in close connection with available experimental data.

In recent years, he has placed special focus on the mechanisms of muscle contraction, as well as on the analysis of the impact of cardiovascular genetic diseases and drugs on heart muscle function.

Participates in the development of biophysically realistic muscle models and simulation platforms such as: MUSICO – платформа за симулацију мишићних контракција
MUSICO-X – software for interpreting X-ray diffraction images of living muscle fibers
