New Insights into Microbubble Dynamics and Blood-Brain Barrier Function: A Collaborative Breakthrough
Our latest research on the coupled behavior of microbubble dynamics in brain vessels and the impact of microbubble resonant effects on the blood-brain barrier signaling and function has just been published. Great leadership by Yutong Guo and excellent team work by Hohyun (Henry) Lee, Chulyong Kim, Christian Park, Akane Yamamichi, Polly Chuntova, Ph.D., Marco Gallus, Miguel O. Bernabeu, Hideho Okada, and Hanjoong Jo.
Yutong’s RNA-based Therapy Work Makes Waves, Congrats!

Excerpt from the news article:
Thanks to NSF funding Alper Erturk (ME), Costas Arvanitis (ME/BME), Brooks Lindsey (BME), and their colleagues are exploring ways to use vibrations and waves to develop enhanced imaging, diagnosis, and therapy of the skull-brain system, potentially paving the way for the treatment of brain tumors, detection of traumas and skull-related defects, mapping of the brain function, and neurostimulation, as well as new methods of drug delivery for treatment of diseases such as Alzheimer’s.
