Leonid Gavrilov received a prestigious Pioneer award for research in the field of therapeutic ultrasound. The award ceremony took place on June 13, 2019 in the historic building of the University of Barcelona (Spain) at the joint ISTU/EUFUS symposium. More details about Leonid's pioneer research can be found here.
From 13th to 15th of June 2019, the LIMU team attended the 19th International Symposium on Therapeutic Ultrasound organized jointly with the 5th European Symposium on Focused Ultrasound. The conference was held in historical building of the University of Barcelona (Spain). Altogether, 13 abstracts were presented co-authored with LIMU staff.
In June 2019, Kseniya Topchu received the Third Degree Award presenting her project “Changes of morphological characteristics of blood cells during preparation of hematoma models for acoustic experiment" at the contest for the 2-nd year students of the Physics Faculty of Moscow State University. The project was conducted under supervision of Vera Khokhlova and Sergey Buravkov. Сongratulations!
In May 2019 LIMU team participated in the XVII All-Russian School-seminar «Physics and application of microwaves» named after Professor Anatoliy Sukhorukov («Waves-2019»).
According to the results of 2018, the LIMU project of 2014 – 2018 “Physical principles and development of high intensity focused ultrasound medical transducers for shock wave treatments in inhomogeneous biological tissues” was recognized as one of the best projects supported by the Russian Science Foundation. Congratulations to the team on the successful implementation of the project!
At the end of March 2019, our colleagues from the University of Washington in Seattle visited LIMU. George Schade, Professor of the Department of Urology and Tatiana Khokhlova, Professor of the University Medical School, gave lectures on the present and future of non-invasive surgery using high-intensity focused ultrasound (see the recored lecture 1 on the physical mechanisms and lecture 2 on the clinical aspects).
