DOI: 10.1073/pnas.1902688116
Abstract: Significance During pregnancy, the placenta functions as surrogate fetal lungs, kidneys, and gut. Proper placental functioning is therefore paramount during embryonic development. Indeed, placental defects are highly prevalent in mouse mutants showing embryonic death. Here… read more here.

DOI: 10.1109/tuffc.2020.2977942
Abstract: Adaptive beamforming has been widely studied for ultrasound imaging over the past few decades. The minimum variance (MV) and generalized coherence factor (GCF) approaches have been validated as effective methods. However, the MV method had… read more here.

DOI: 10.1364/boe.480842
Abstract: In a photoacoustic (PA) imaging system, the detectors are bandwidth-limited. Therefore, they capture PA signals with some unwanted ripples. This limitation degrades the resolution/contrast and induces sidelobes and artifacts in the reconstructed images along the… read more here.
