In order for research to be selected it must be deemed significant, impactful, and of interest to a broad audience.<\/p>\n<p>During her talk, Bell will describe her lab\u2019s novel light-delivery systems that attach to surgical tools to deliver light to surgical sites. Her talk will also go over the development of acoustic beamforming algorithms that improve image quality using state-of-the-art deep learning methods applied directly to raw sensor data.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cMany of the ideas that I will highlight in my talk were first presented at SPIE conferences and first published in SPIE affiliated journals,\u201d Bell said. \u201cIt is my pleasure to summarize my lab\u2019s progress to date on the topic of photoacoustic-guided surgery at this venue considering this interconnected history.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Bell will not be the only PULSE lab representative at the conference, as Ph.D. candidates Eduardo Gonzalez, Michelle Graham and Alycen Wiacek will also be presenting their research there. Along with her students having the opportunity to network and convey the work they have been doing to a broad audience, Bell is excited  to share the stage with other leaders in the photonics field.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI am honored to present alongside luminaries in the field, such as James Fujimoto at MIT, the inventor of optical coherence tomography,\u201d Bell said. \u201cI am grateful to the conference chairs for this exciting opportunity.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-114752","news","type-news","status-publish","hentry","news_categories-department-news","news_categories-research"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.7 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Muyinatu Bell to present Hot Topic talk at SPIE Photonics West 2020 Conference - Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/engineering.jhu.edu\/ece\/news\/muyinatu-bell-to-present-hot-topic-talk-at-spie-photonics-west-2020-conference\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Muyinatu Bell to present Hot Topic talk at SPIE Photonics West 2020 Conference - Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"Muyinatu Bell, an assistant professor in the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering who is also the principal investigator of the Photoacoustic &amp;
