The overall thrust of our research is the development of new diagnostic ultrasound techniques and applications and translating them from laboratory experiments into practical solutions that can be used in a clinical setting (bench to bedside). Furthermore, using these techniques in a clinical setting, we seek to develop new insights and make novel observations about human physiology and function, which would be the stimulus for further basic investigations.

Our current research has two broad themes:

• Using ultrasound waves in novel ways to study human physiology
• Using computational modeling in combination with experimental measurements to investigate underlying mechanisms
