Bruce Daniel
Professor of Radiology (Body Imaging) and, by courtesy, of Bioengineering
Current Research and Scholarly Interests1. MRI of Breast Cancer, particularly new techniques. Currently being explored are techniques including ultra high spatial resolution MRI and contrast-agent-free detection of breast tumors.
2. MRI-guided interventions, especially MRI-compatible remote manipulation and haptics
3. Medical Mixed Reality. Currently being explored are methods of fusing patients and their images to potentially improve breast conserving surgery, and other conditions. -
Giorgio Davico
Visiting Assistant Professor, Bioengineering
BioI am a Junior Assistant Professor in the Department of Industrial Engineering at the University of Bologna (Italy). I completed my PhD in musculoskeletal biomechanics at Griffith University and then conducted post-doctoral research in the same field at the University of Bologna. My research activities focus on the development and use of different approaches to model suboptimal or abnormal muscle control, which include EMG-assisted and stochastic approaches, to better understand and study neuromusculoskeletal conditions (such as cerebral palsy or age-related muscle disorders). As postdoctoral researcher I was further involved in the EU-funded Mobilise-D project, aimed at validating a set of Digital Mobility Outcome measures (e.g., real world walking speed) derived from the continuous recordings of a single werable sensor to monitor disease status and progression in diseases affecting mobility.

Karl Deisseroth
D. H. Chen Professor, Professor of Bioengineering and of Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsKarl Deisseroth's laboratory created and developed optogenetics, hydrogel-tissue chemistry (beginning with CLARITY), and a broad range of enabling methods. He also has employed his technologies to discover the neural cell types and connections that cause adaptive and maladaptive behaviors.
