Alison Lesley Marsden, Ph.D.

Alison Lesley Marsden, Ph.D. is a Biomedical Engineering expert specializing in cardiovascular modeling and computational fluid dynamics in litigation contexts. With a career spanning bioengineering, digital health, and pediatric cardiology, she brings a multidisciplinary framework to her litigation work. Her work centers on investigating cardiovascular device efficacy, assessing computational modeling accuracy, and evaluating whether surgical interventions meet industry standards.

Ms. Marsden has been retained in numerous expert witness and consulting engagements across the United States, involving cases related to cardiovascular disease, medical devices, and pediatric cardiology. Her Ph.D. in Mechanical Engineering, along with her Fellow status in the Biomedical Engineering Society and American Institute for Medical and Biological Engineering, reinforce her ability to deliver objective, defensible analyses. She is regularly engaged by both plaintiff and defense counsel to provide clear, independent determinations of causation in disputes involving cardiovascular modeling and medical devices.
