TRUE lab undergraduate students Gerald Lee and Sean P. Crowley have been awarded the UCI Undergraduate Research Opportunities Program (UROP) fellowship. Congrats to our amazing undergraduate research assistants!
The Undergraduate Research Opportunities Program (UROP) Faculty Advisory Board has selected TRUE lab undergraduate student Rongying as an UROP Fellow for the 2021-2022 academic year. Rongying is currently a third-year BME student. Congrats Rongying, and keep up the good work!
TRUE lab Ph.D. student, Kristina Bjegovic, has been selected as the predoctoral fellow in the NIH T32 Training Program for Interdisciplinary Cancer Research. Big congrats to Kristina!
The T32 Training Program for Interdisciplinary Cancer Research (IDCR) provides UCI graduate students and postdoctoral fellows with comprehensive, highly interdisciplinary training that includes cancer biology, the most current research methods, and a focus on translational science such as the development of novel cancer therapeutics and diagnostics.
Dr. Xiang has talked about “Theranostics with Radiation-induced Ultrasound Emission” at the International Conference on Biomedical Health Informatics (ICBHI 2021), held in South Korea last week.
TRUE lab Ph. D. student Siqi Wang’s recent paper has been published on Applied Physics Letters (https://doi.org/10.1063/5.0071911). It has been featured on the APL website. And it is also being highlighted by American Institute of Physics.
Scilights showcase the most interesting research across the physical sciences published in AIP Publishing Journals.
A Scilight, a science highlight, briefly summarizes newly published research, emphasizing its significance to a particular field. Scilights are written to ‘intrigue’ a broad scientific audience showcasing what is new and important in the latest research.
