About Alex

Dr Alex Bateman is a Lecturer in Mechanical Engineering within the School of Engineering, College of Engineering, Science and Environment, at the University of Newcastle, Australia. He holds a Doctor of Philosophy, a Master of Biomedical Engineering with Excellence, and a Bachelor of Engineering (Honours) in Mechanical Engineering with Honour C1, all from the University of New South Wales. Bateman's research bridges engineering and medicine, specializing in the fluid mechanics of the cerebral vasculature associated with neurological conditions such as stroke, multiple sclerosis, idiopathic intracranial hypertension, and leukoaraiosis. He integrates computational fluid dynamics, finite element analysis, and 3D printing to develop patient-specific vascular models, investigating hemodynamic factors, blood flow dynamics, and vascular biomechanics to inform clinical decision-making and treatment strategies.
