This Project Grant award from the National Institute of Biomedical Imaging and Bioengineering (NIBIB) under the Discovery and Applied Research for Technological Innovations to Improve Human Health program (CFDA 93.286) provides $341,598 to Oakland University to conduct research on quantitative photoacoustic imaging biomarkers for characterization of thrombosis. The research aims to develop non-invasive diagnostic tools to characterize the microstructure of blood clots, which is critical for selecting proper treatment for conditions like deep vein thrombosis and pulmonary embolism. The 3-year project, starting in September 2024, will be driven primarily by undergraduate researchers and is expected to establish a foundation for quantitative photoacoustic characterization of thrombosis and lead to improved, targeted therapies for these cardiovascular diseases.
