- The National Science Foundation (NSF) awarded a $199,940 Project Grant to Bucknell University under the Engineering (CFDA 47.041) program. The grant supports research to investigate the effects of low-frequency, low-intensity ultrasound on the interaction between endothelial cells and macrophages, which is important for understanding the biological mechanisms behind the use of ultrasound therapy to promote wound healing. The research aims to characterize how ultrasound affects the pro-angiogenic...
- This federal Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Engineering program (CFDA 47.041) is for a research project titled "High-Resolution Transcranial Ultrasound Neuromodulation at Large Scale." The $285,380 award, effective September 1, 2025 through May 31, 2026, supports scientific research to explore the use of orthogonal crossed beams of ultrasound as a noninvasive means for achieving unprecedented sub-0.1 mm3 spatial resolution neuromodulation at large...
- This Project Grant award from the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS), under the Drug Abuse and Addiction Research Programs (CFDA 93.279), provides $2,505,537 to The Leland Stanford Junior University to develop a focused ultrasound (FUS) device for noninvasive, peripheral nerve blockade to manage acute pain. The goal is to provide an alternative to opioids and current peripheral nerve block techniques, which have significant limitations in acute pain management. The...
- This federal 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 $420,725 to the University of California, San Diego (UCSD) to research and develop novel acoustic metamaterials for subwavelength ultrasound focusing. The project aims to overcome the diffraction limit in medical ultrasound imaging and therapies by leveraging...
- 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) totaling $423,399.00 aims to develop and validate new ultrasound hardware technologies for high-contrast, high-resolution microvascular imaging. The goal is to detect abnormalities in vascular morphology, which can serve as biomarkers for various diseases ranging from cancer to...
- The U.S. Defense Health Agency awarded a $5,540,949 Project Grant to the Rector & Visitors of the University of Virginia (UVA) to conduct research on focused ultrasound interventions for noninvasive precision therapy in primary and metastatic breast cancers. This grant is funded through the Military Medical Research and Development program (CFDA 12.420), which supports advanced biomedical research to transform healthcare for military service members, veterans, and the broader public. The...
- This federal Project Grant award from the National Institute of Arthritis and Musculoskeletal and Skin Diseases (NIAMS), under the Arthritis, Musculoskeletal and Skin Diseases Research program (CFDA 93.846), is providing $1,958,125.00 to the University of Oregon to develop an innovative nanoparticle drug delivery system to improve tendon regeneration following acute injuries. The researchers aim to leverage a novel peptide that specifically targets and binds to inflammation markers in healing...
This $428,578 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), supports research and development to establish protocols for using Focused Ultrasound (FUS) therapy to treat Achilles tendinopathy. The project aims to: 1) develop computational models to characterize the thermal and mechanical effects of FUS on murine Achilles tendons, 2) identify optimal FUS stimulation parameters for effective in vivo treatment of tendinopathy in mice, and 3) analyze the cellular and tissue responses to different FUS stimulation regimes. The award was made to Virginia Polytechnic Institute & State University and has a period of performance from September 1, 2025 to August 31, 2027.
