Speaker Profile

Anders Larsson

Anders Larsson studied Engineering, Computer Science and Mathematics at Chalmers University of Technology and at Gothenburg University in Gothenburg, Sweden.

In 1999 he co-founded Surgical Science together with two other computer scientists and a surgeon. Together they started the development of the LapSim training system for training laparoscopic surgery. The first version of LapSim was released at MMVR 2001 and has subsequently been updated on a
yearly basis.

His main interests are computer graphics, dynamics and interactive simulation.
