Virginia Tech takes a leap forward in medical innovation! 🚀 Honored to be designated as a Center of Excellence by @fusfoundation, recognizing our leading role in advancing non-invasive medical treatments. #FocusedUltrasound#Innovation https://t.co/3FfNGfSCJa
Results from two clinical trials investigating low-intensity focused ultrasound (LIFU) for the treatment of pain have been published. In both trials, the teams from @WynnLegonLab at @FralinBiomed showed that LIFU could be an effective method for noninvasive neuromodulation of pain. https://t.co/U9FqOgMG9G

Please join brainSTIM for the following talk next Monday, 4/8 at 3 PM with Wynn Legon, Ph.D. (Virginia Tech Carilion School of Medicine)!
"Low-intensity focused ultrasound for human neuromodulation applications”
Great time at the Neurosurgical Society of the Virginias conference with the growing @vtcsom neurosurgery crew!

New pre-print led by our stellar med student @AlexanderIn17! In a pre/post design, LIFU to the insula and cingulate has site-specific and pressure dependent effects on human pain perception using measures of central sensitization

Fantastic talk by @AlexanderIn17 today at #FUSF2022 about LIFU! This project also earned him the Young Investigator Award. Well done, Alex! Many great things to come.
CONGRATULATIONS to our two medical students, @AlexanderIn17 and Areej Ennasr for being awarded the Young Investigator Award at this week’s 8th International Symposium on Focused Ultrasoind from @FUSFoundation Well done Alex and Areej! @vtcsom@vtnews
Less than two weeks until #FUN22 in Mainz, Germany! Make sure to check out @StrohmanAndrew and his talk on single-element focused ultrasound and it's effect on EEG contact heat-evoked potentials and network connectivity
Today is the start of pain awareness month. A day to show what it feels like living with it, how it impacts and affects quality of life, why increased research and pain education are important, and more. #PainAwarenessMonth#chronicpain#CRPS
Happy birthday @AlexanderIn17 !! Alex is a hard-working lab member interested in functional neurosurgery, great coffee, and wants to open his own cafe one day! His project in our lab uses LIFU for chronic pain modulation. Have a great day Alex!
