Vipul Sheth, MD, PhD
Assistant Professor of Radiology (Body MRI)
On Partial Leave from 2026-09-08 To 2026-11-06Current Research and Scholarly InterestsMy interests are in the development and translation of imaging technologies geared toward disease detection and characterization to better guide prognosis, treatment, and improve outcomes. I’m interested in supporting the development of MRI guided focal therapy methods which can personalize treatment and reduce the risk of morbidity from more invasive therapies.
Clinical Interests
- MRI for diagnosis of pelvic floor disorders
- MRI and PET/MRI to pelvic malignancies and lymph node staging.
- Whole Body MRI
- MRI guided procedures including biopsies, cryoablation, and high intensity focused ultrasound.
Translational Research Interests
- Development and translation of magnetic resonance imaging technologies to improve both diagnostics and therapeutics
- Molecular imaging and characterization of the tumor microenvironment
- Ultrashort echo time MRI applications in the body
- Developing synergistic MRI methods to complement PET in potential applications for PET/MRI -

Baiyu Shi
Ph.D. Student in Mechanical Engineering, admitted Autumn 2023
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsMy research combines electronic skin, tactile sensing, and robot learning to enable dexterous manipulation and safe physical interaction. I develop scalable, stretchable sensing systems that help robots perceive and respond to contact. My broader interests include novel sensing modalities, human-robot interaction, mechanical design, and wearable technologies.
