Single Neuron Stimulation

Our work on photoacoustic single neuron stimulation has been published by Light Science & Application. This work was led by Linli and Ying from Dr. Cheng’s group. It is so exciting to see we are extending the capability of this new technology! BU ECE also highlighted our work in a news report.

PAN, a new system writing to your brain!

We are so excited that our photoacoustic nanotransducer paper is published in Matter, a sister journal with Cell. It is a new nanoparticle system that utilize the photoacoustic effect upon absorbing NIR-II light for neural modulation. Great collaboration with Dr. Cheng, Dr. Man and Dr. Jia group. Congrats, Ying and Yimin!

Congrats, Dr. Dutta!

Amartya successfully defended his Ph.D thesis with a recommendation from his committee for his thesis to be nominated for the best dissertation award in Department of ECE. Way to go, Dr. Dutta, our first Doctor degree from BU ECE department! We wish you best and an exciting start of a new chapter of your life […]

Congrats, Linli for publishing our first paper in the new direction!

Our first paper in the direction of developing photoacoustic devices for cell modulation is published in Photoacoustics! Congrats, Linli, for leading this new direction. It is an exciting interdisciplinary direction requiring expertise in material chemistry, physical chemistry, electrical engineering and biomedical engineering.

Congrats, Kate!

Kate will accept a scientist position in CapSys in MA. Warmest congrats, Kate!  We are so proud of you.

Congratulations, Dr. Hansen and Dr. Huang!

Kate and Yimin successfully defended their Ph.D. thesis! Congratulations, Dr. Hansen and Dr. Huang! We are proud of your accomplishment. We also found fun in ZOOM Ph.D defenses.

Fun Summer Research!

We were so excited to work with our talented Summer Undergraduate Researchers, Guo Chen, Wei Liu, Zhiyi Du, Jinyan Si and Raheem Carless. Glad to have you all in the summer of 2019.

Congratulation to Yimin and Linli!

Congratulate Yimin and Linli for winning the BU Chemistry Feldman Travel Award! Both presented excellent oral presentations at MRS 2019 Spring meeting.
