Novel ¹H MR Probes To Interrogate The Tumor Microenvironment
(Biomedical Engineering, 2011-10-11)
The term "tumor microenvironment" usually refers to the description of the physiological and metabolic conditions within solid tumors (primary or metastatic), and is significantly different from that of normal tissues. ...
Wireless Closed-loop Feedback Systems For Automatic Detection And Suppression Of Nociceptive Signals
(Biomedical Engineering, 2011-10-11)
Chronic pain is an important public health issue. Several approaches have been implemented for management of chronic pain, including surgical implantation of neurostimulators. Neurostimulators have been used in clinics for ...
Investigation Of Neural Correlates Between Perception Of Pain And Hemodynamic Response Measured In The Pre-frontal Cortex Using Functional Near Infra-red Spectroscopy
(Biomedical Engineering, 2011-10-11)
Perception of pain is multi-dimensional, comprising three major psychological dimensions: sensory-discriminative, motivational-affective and cognitive-evaluative. This dissertation study investigates the cognitive evaluation ...
Development Of Orchestrated Stem Cell-based Regeneration (OSCeR) -strategies To Recruit And Differentiate Autologous Stem Cells For Tissue Regeneration
(Biomedical Engineering, 2011-03-03)
Stem cell therapy has shown great promise in curing diseases. However, clinical application of stem cell therapy is often hindered by the lack of reliable sources and convenient methods to recover stem cells. Our laboratory ...
