Personalisation of Cellular Electrophysiology Models: Utopia?

As cell-level differences from person to person are gaining more attention, the idea of having personalised models of cell electrophysiology is growing ever more attractive. In this paper for the special session “Personalized medicine through integration of imaging and cardiac modeling”, I briefly review the different pathways to personalisation and the challenges they present.
