Liposome delivery to the brain with rapid short-pulses of focused ultrasound and microbubbles. | James J. Choi Imperial College London | UKICRS #focusedultrasound #liposome #microbubble doi.org/10.1016/j.jcon…

Did you know that inerital cavitation produces acoustic shock waves? If you haven't been detecting sharp compressional peaks, using smaller sensors may help. ZhengJiang has built a needle hydrophone array, which can detect shockwaves and localise them. ieeexplore.ieee.org/document/95703…

Honored to present our work on the system for non-invasive brain surgery in the Parliament! The Noninvasive Surgery & Biopsy Laboratory STEM for Britain

Congrats to James Choi on winning the 2022 Frederic Lizzi Award from International Society for Therapeutic Ultrasound.

A great talk from Dani Chattenton at #ISPNO22 on her work towards testing focused ultrasound and microbubbles to deliver drug to the pons to treat #DIPG

Our next #WE50 winner is revealed... Congratulations Sophie V Morse! Imperial College London

Incredibly proud of Dr Sophie Morse . Congratulations and keep going! :)

Microphones are used to monitor therapeutic ultrasound procedures, but what are we actually listening to? Our lab is studying how (left) ultrasound pulses travelling through a cloud of microbubbles (right) creates an asymmetric series of shock waves. doi.org/10.1121/10.000…

Excited to be presenting in the future leaders session 🔊🫧💊🧠 The Noninvasive Surgery & Biopsy Laboratory JonesLabICR

Passed my viva today! A huge thank you to my colleagues at The Noninvasive Surgery & Biopsy Laboratory! A special thank you to my examiners for the inspiring conversation, great questions, and valuable suggestions! It's a strong end, and may also be a good start of something great.

Very happy to share that I have passed my PhD viva with minor corrections last Friday. Thanks Radiochemistry and Nuclear Imaging Group JWElab lab for making my viva so enjoyable. Thanks to everyone else at Biomedical Engineering & Imaging Sciences CDT in Smart Medical Imaging at King's & Imperial including my supervisors Rafa Torres(still not on twitter 😅) and The Noninvasive Surgery & Biopsy Laboratory

Graduating today! #OurImperial

We are delighted to announce our Keynote Speaker James Choi for the FUSE CDT ASM held at University of Glasgow. Dr Choi is a Senior Lecturer at the Department of Bioengineering Imperial College London and leads The Noninvasive Surgery & Biopsy Laboratory #FUSEASM2023 University of Strathclyde

We've come up with a way of making microchannels in soft hydrogels, down to 5 µm in diameter! We'll be using them to study Acoustic Cavitation in confinement. Published in #Small lead by Shusei Kawara and in collaboration with Sam Au onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.10…

I’ve packed up parts of CavLab and taken it back on the road - this time to The Noninvasive Surgery & Biopsy Laboratory for a month!

Welcome Hilde Metzger (she/her) to our lab! We're glad nothing broke on the way here 😅

In the TTP Podcast, James Choi and Sam Barker chat with Stuart Lowe on brain drug delivery. This is a good introduction into how the blood-brain barrier blocks drugs from reaching brain diseases; and how nanomedicines and ultrasound could be the solution. tinyurl.com/zkc73u5z

5 years in the making - happy to reveal our work to the world. Microbubbles have been used to open the blood-brain barrier, but we have never even seen a microbubble oscillating in a brain microvessel, until now. We present the first direct observations: biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

We are seeking 3 PhD students to develop and use a new focused ultrasound device to manipulate neural circuits. Engineers, physicists, and neuroscientists are encouraged to apply. Deadline: 16 Jan (R1), 15 Feb (R2, if required) Application descriptors: nsblab.org/join-the-lab

We are #hiring a Research Associate (Postdoc) to build a multi-spectral focused ultrasound array and engine for delivering drugs to the brain. Start date: 1 July 2025 Duration: 4 years Application deadline: 6 March 2025 imperial.ac.uk/jobs/search-jo…
