Development of Particle Platforms for Delivery of Angiogenic Reagents to Treat Peripheral Arterial Diseases
(2019-01-11)
Peripheral arterial disease (PAD) is a disease that one or several peripheral arteries are narrowed or blocked. PAD is an emerging disease that cost annually 10-20 billions of US dollars for health care in America. PAD ...
METABOLIC, HEMODYNAMIC AND ELECTROPHYSIOLOGICAL EFFECTS OF TRANSCRANIAL PHOTOBIOMODULATION (tPBM) ON THE HUMAN BRAIN
(2019-08-30)
Photobiomodulation (PBM) refers to the use of red-to-near-infrared light to stimulate cellular functions for physiological or clinical benefits. Transcranial photobiomodulation (tPBM) is a noninvasive form of cerebral ...
Multi-modality Magnetic Resonance Imaging in Typical and Atypical Developmental Human Brain
(2016-12-20)
