Project Description Magnetoencephalography (MEG) is a non-invasive brain imaging method, where images of the electrical activity inside the brain can be generated. It measures the magnetic field that comes out of the head with an array of magnetic field sensors placed all around the head. We are developing quantum magnetometers...

Project Description This project is part of larger studies that aim to understand soft tissue injury susceptibility. In these studies, we quantify the differences in injury mechanics of knee ligaments from multiple mouse model comparisons, including genetically-modified mice and treadmill exercised mice vs. caged controls. These differences in mechanical function...

Project Description The objective of this project is to identify differences in osteocyte mechanobiological function in response to exposure to breast cancer and mechanical loading. These differences will be determined via histological staining and image analysis of relevant osteocyte-derived proteins. Our previous work demonstrates that skeletal mechanical signals have an...

Project Description The project aims to develop semiconductor devices that convert heat flow into electricity without moving parts or emitting pollutants, by creating a 鈥渘anophononic鈥� thermoelectric device. This concept relies on having tiny structures added to a thin solid membrane鈥檚 top and bottom slow the flow of heat down the...

Project Description Electric machines can be motors or generators dependent on if power is supplied or generated. Advances in electric machine design and thermal management hold promise for electric aviation, electric vehicles, and more efficient or smaller generators. This project will involve students running an experimental test setup to collect...

Project Description Biosensing is an essential part of patient diagnosis, pandemic response, and disease management; however, many biosensing techniques require complex preparation and processing steps. This project will explore use of acoustic trapping of biomarker-specific microparticles in microfluidic channels 鈥� a technique termed 鈥渁coustofluidic trapping鈥� 鈥� for simplified purification and...

Project Description Many applications of drop-based microfluidics have been explored in recent years, ranging from drug targeting to micro-chemical reactors. Understanding the physics of drop motion in rectangular microchannels is key to provide insights when designing such applications. Our group has previously developed computational methods to similar such systems, whereas...

Project Description Self-propulsion at the micrometer or nanometer scale is ubiquitous in biological systems around and within us. Inspired by this biological phenomena, there has been immense interest in creating synthetic microswimmers, i.e. self-propelling particles. However, most of the computational studies in this domain are limited to spheroidal or cylindrical...

Project Description We are developing a high resolution ultrasound imaging system that relies on 3-D tracking of the ultrasound probe using the Polaris Vega optical measurement system. This system will be used to enhance image quality for difficult-to-image patients and deep targets in the body. The student will explore the...

Project Description Helping in implementing new software for path planning and low-level control for AWS DeepRacer robots. Helping with the development and deployment of the interface software for AWS DeepRacer robots. Helping with the development and deployment of the camera system interface software. Helping with the development and deployment of...
