Please join us for a technical seminar by Dr. Alycen Wiacek on Medical Acoustics for Global Health, Imaging, and Clinical Translation at Wayne State University. Abstract: Ultrasound and photoacoustic imaging are two related medical imaging modalities that transmit sound and light, respectively, into the body and measure signals representing the acoustic response from tissue. Due to their potential to be both noninvasive and portable, these acoustic-based imaging modalities hold significant promise for diagnosis in resource limited settings. However, engineering quantitative tools rather than requiring manual image interpretation is critical to aid the transition of these methods into the clinic. In this talk, I will highlight the work being done in the Medical Acoustics for Global Health, Imaging, and Clinical Translation (MAGIC) Lab at Oakland University, developing quantitative tools to improve the quality and availability of ultrasound and photoacoustic imaging. Specifically, I will highlight three main innovations including: (1) leveraging physics-informed deep learning to diagnose breast cancer, (2) quantifying portable ultrasound to guide physical therapy treatment, and (3) developing quantitative photoacoustic-based biomarkers to characterize thrombosis. Bio: Alycen Wiacek is an Assistant Professor in the Departments of Electrical & Computer Engineering and Bioengineering at Oakland University where she directs the Medical Acoustics for Global health Imaging and Clinical translation (MAGIC) lab. Her research focuses on leveraging signal processing and artificial intelligence to improve the quality and availability of ultrasound and other medical imaging methods. Dr. Wiacek earned her BS from Wayne State University, MS from Oakland University, and PhD from Johns Hopkins University all in Electrical and Computer Engineering. Her work is funded by the National Science Foundation, the National Institutes of Health, and the Michigan Space Grant Consortium. She has also received several awards for her work including the American Institute of Ultrasound in Medicine (AIUM) New Investigator Award, the Siebel Scholar Award, and the Achievement Rewards for College Scientists (ARCS) Scholar Award.

Dear MIPSE Visitors and Friends, Our final MIPSE seminar of the semester will be given by Dr. Benjamin Yee and Dr. Hema Swaroop Mopidevi of Lam Research Corp. The seminar, to be presented on Wednesday, April 16, at 3:10 pm in room 1003 EECS, is titled “Grand Challenges in RF & Plasmas for Next Generation Semiconductor Manufacturing”. In this talk, an overview of the role of plasma processing for etching and deposition in semiconductor manufacturing will be given, with emphasis on the state-of-the-art challenges in fabricating advanced microelectronics and quantum devices. The importance of RF (radio frequency) power delivery to sustain these plasmas, often pulsed power, will also be discussed. Please see attached flyer or (https://mipse.umich.edu/seminars_2425.php) for details. The seminar will be conducted in person and simulcast via Zoom (see (https://mipse.umich.edu/seminars_2425.php#winter2025) on the MIPSE website).
