Medical imaging struggles to read dark skin. Researchers say they’ve found a way to make it easier Muyinatu Bell, an author of the study and director and founder of the Photoacoustic and Ultrasonics Systems Engineering (PULSE) Lab at JHU, has her work featured on CNN. Read full article here.
Mathias Unberath, assistant professor in the Department of Computer Science, has been named a recipient of the National Science Foundation’s Early CAREER Award, which recognizes early-stage scholars with high levels of promise and excellence. Mathias’ award project, titled “Digital Twins of Surgical Environments for Situational Awareness and Immersive Simulation,” seeks to develop “digital twins” of image-guided surgery […]

Muyinatu Bell wants to make surgery safer. An assistant professor in the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering at Johns Hopkins University and director of the Photoacoustic and Ultrasonic Systems Engineering (PULSE) Lab, Bell utilizes her cross-disciplinary training to maximum effect. Her work’s potent combination of computer engineering, biomedical optics, and computer science is innovating […]
By Hub staff report Gregory Hager and K.T. Ramesh, members of the engineering faculty at Johns Hopkins University, are among 416 fellows elected this year to the American Association for the Advancement of Science. Founded in 1874, the AAAS recognizes scholars whose research is considered by their peers to be scientifically or socially distinguished. The […]
Forget the pool. This summer, a group of talented undergraduates from universities nationwide dove headfirst into exciting research projects in labs across the Homewood campus as part of the National Science Foundation’s Research Experiences for Undergraduates (REU) Program in Computational Sensing and Robotics. Through this immersive, 10-week program, 14 undergraduate students – some from local […]
The NIH Director’s Blog highlights the work of Professor Noah Cowan and how his ability to juggle has helped him design experiments to answer questions about how the nervous system controls movement.
ECE Assistant Professor Muyinatu Bell is conducting pioneering research that integrates deep learning with ultrasound image formation to provide interventional radiologists with a fundamentally new type of ultrasound image. These novel images only display structures of interest, such as a needle tip as it is inserted into the kidney and the corresponding kidney target location, […]
