Introducing AAV.FUS - a viral vector for enhanced noninvasive gene delivery in targeted brain regions using ultrasonic BBB opening. 🧠🔊🧬 Congrats to Richard Hongyi Li and the team at Caltech and Jerzy Szablowski's lab on the official publication! nature.com/articles/s4146…




Our second invited speaker, Ghazaleh Darmani, delivered an excellent lecture on how #LFPs change in response to #focusedultrasound stimulation in #ParkinsonsDisease patients in the second session that was moderated by Elsa Fouragnan Elsa Fouragnan from University of Plymouth.


In the final session of #FUN24, moderated by Wynn Legon Noninvasive Ultrasound Lab, we heard from invited speaker Jerome Sallet @jerome_sallet about his research on the offline effects of TUS on non-human primates. The session concluded with two outstanding talks by Sjoerd Meijer




Discussing the effects of ultrasound neuromodulation at the cellular and molecular level at this years BBI Conference in London is University of Bristol's Dr Daniel Whitcomb. #BBI2024 #Neuroscience #NIBS


Interested in how Focused Ultrasound can reach deep in the brain and change the reward circuitry and associated behaviors? this is for you! tinyurl.com/4wwxepuw So proud of this work that took us nearly 4y in the thinking and making (siti yaakub,@NadegeBault,Mathilde Lojkiewiez &al)

Didn't expect to see so many people I know linked in an article by a music historian and jazz pianist. It's official: we're all musicians now! Thanks for the interest in high frequencies, Ted Gioia Elsa Fouragnan BrainSonix Corp shorturl.at/BjyiT

How cool! Btw the drawing I made this summer with Keith Murphy playing with waveforms is now the cover of Neuron, for his paper pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/39079529/


Check out our new issue: cell.com/neuron/current Cover is for Keith Murphy and colleagues' #NeuroResource on optimized ultrasound neuromodulation for non-invasive control of behavior and physiology in mice. Find it here: cell.com/neuron/fulltex…


Fantastic work made available by Max Lückel (Maximilian Lueckel 🇺🇦🕊️) et al. that will help researchers to optimally position their TUS transducers! Check out the open-source PlanTUS software!


So thrilled and humbled to be part of a £6.5M project funded by the ARIA Precision Neurotechnologies programme. Together with NHS and Forest Neurotech, we’re trialing a whole-brain interface using ultrasound which could transform mental health!🧠 University of Plymouth Brain Research & Imaging Centre (BRIC)

🚀 It’s finally out! A must-read on transcranial focused ultrasound stimulation (TUS), led by top experts, including Keith Murphy, Til Ole Bergmann and many others! The best guide (with great graphics)! 📷#TUS #BrainStimulation doi.org/10.1016/j.clin…

Just a few days left to apply! Curious about transcranial ultrasound stimulation (TUS)? Join our hands-on TUS workshop University of Plymouth 🧠 🔬 Learn the physics, biomechanisms & human applications of TUS 📅 31 Apr – 2 May 2025 brainbox-initiative.com/workshops/fund…
