DESCRIPTION:Providing therapy options that are tailored to each patient is
  the vision of the precision medicine\, created by the increasing ability 
 to capture exquisite data about the patient. In this talk it is argued tha
 t the a second enabling pillar towards this vision is the increasing abili
 ty of computers to reason with data and to build the &ldquo\;digital twin&
 rdquo\; of the patient\, defined as the coherent representation of both it
 s individual data and the knowledge of human physiology. This talk will re
 view early steps of the &ldquo\;digital twin&rdquo\; in the area of cardio
 vascular medicine\, from the perspective of the Personalised In-silico Car
 diology (PIC) EU project\, together with a critical discussion of the chal
 lenges and opportunities ahead. A special emphasis is given on the synergi
 es between mechanistic and statistic models in cardiology\, how they are a
 ccelerating research\, and how they will enable the vision of precision  m
 edicine.
