SUMMARY:BME Seminar Series: Natasah Seybani\, PhD
DESCRIPTION:Bench-to-Bedside Engineering of Precision Immunotherapy Paradigms with Focused Ultrasound\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nNatasha Sheybani\, PhDAssistant Professor of Biomedical EngineeringResearch Director at UVA Focused UltrasoundImmuno-Oncology (FUSION) CenterUniversity of Virginia \n\n\n\nAbstract:Immunotherapy has revolutionized cancer treatment\, but significant limitations remain across solid tumor indications. This talk will highlight advances in the use of image-guided focused ultrasound (FUS) as a non-invasive\, multi-pronged interventional tool for potentiating multiple classes of immunotherapy\, including vaccine adjuvants\, checkpoint inhibitors\, and CAR T cells. We will showcase integration of non-invasive surveillance approaches such as positron emission tomography (PET) and liquid biopsy with FUS to inform precision\, adaptation\, and de-intensification of combinatorial treatment regimens. We will also showcase development of novel image-guided ultrasound instrumentation toward these objectives. Applications spanning high-risk breast cancer and adult/pediatric brain cancers will be discussed. Finally\, this talk will overview clinical translation and insights from first-in-human trials investigating FUS for immuno-oncology applications. \n\n\n\nPrint PDF

SUMMARY:BME Seminar Series: Fabian Voigt\, PhD
DESCRIPTION:Expanding the optical bag of tricks for (neuro)biology\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFabian Voigt\, PhDPostdoctoral Researcher & Branco Weiss Fellow (2024-2029)Biolabs 2072Engert LaboratoryHarvard University \n\n\n\nAbstract:Seeing is believing and thus\, optical imaging techniques are extremely useful to study brain structure and function. I will present several projects aimed at providing the neuroscience community with better imaging instrumentation: These range from open-source light-sheet microscopes for imaging cleared tissue (http://mesospim.org) to novel multi-immersion microscope objectives that take inspiration from scallops and astronomical telescopes. In addition\, I will present recent projects aimed at rapid 3D tracking of freely behaving fish larvae and for increasing the light-collection efficiency of single objective light-sheet microscopes. \n\n\n\nPrint PDF

SUMMARY:BME Seminar Series: Paul Ellison\, PhD
DESCRIPTION:Preclinical nuclear medicine and magnetic resonance imaging for theranostic radiopharmaceutical development\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nPaul Ellison\, PhDAssistant Professor\, Medical PhysicsSchool of Medicine and Public HealthUniversity of Wisconsin-Madison \n\n\n\nAbstract:The development of radiopharmaceuticals for use in nuclear medicine for the diagnosis and treatment of disease is a highly interdisciplinary field that integrates elements of engineering\, materials science\, physics\, chemistry\, and biology. It requires the use of a wide variety of specialty equipment\, like particle accelerators\, automated radiochemical synthesizers\, and imaging systems\, such as positron emission tomography (SPECT) or single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) that provide biochemical information-rich spatial images\, which are often paired with a second modality\, such as x-ray computed tomography (CT) or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) to provide accurate anatomical references. In this presentation\, Dr. Ellison will discuss recent efforts to develop novel theranostic small molecule radiopharmaceuticals for PET imaging and radiopharmaceutical therapy of glioblastoma through targeting system xC–\, a cell surface antiporter that exchanges cystine and glutamate as a key part of the cellular antioxidant defense system. Using modern chemically versatile halodeborylation chemistries\, Dr. Ellison’s laboratory has prepared homologously matched radiopharmaceuticals that emit a variety of medically useful radiations\, including positrons (18F\, 77Br) and photons (131I) for imaging and Auger electrons (77Br) and beta particles (131I) for therapy. Comparative biology studies of this family of compounds utilize the gamut of preclinical imaging technologies\, including PET\, SPECT\, CT\, and MRI. \n\n\n\nPrint PDF
