\"Muyinatu<\/a><\/p>\n

Dr. Muyinatu Bell<\/a> has joined the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering as an assistant professor. Her appointment begins July 1, 2016.<\/p>\n

Bell leads a highly interdisciplinary research program that integrates optics, acoustics, robotics, and electronics to engineer and deploy innovative biomedical imaging systems that address unmet clinical needs. She is the director of the Photoacoustic and Ultrasonic Systems Engineering (PULSE) Lab, and the technologies developed in her lab have applications in neurosurgical navigation, cardiovascular disease, women\u2019s health, and cancer detection and treatment. Bell is additionally interested in utilizing these novel technologies to investigate fundamental science questions surrounding the limits of laser-tissue interactions and their effect on tissue mechanical properties derived from acoustic measurements.<\/p>\n

Bell will also have a secondary appointment in the Department of Biomedical Engineering. She obtained a PhD in Biomedical Engineering from Duke University (2012) and a BS in Mechanical Engineering with a minor in Biomedical Engineering from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (2006). In addition, she spent a year abroad as an academic visitor at the Institute of Cancer Research and Royal Marsden Hospital in the United Kingdom (2009-2010). Prior to joining the faculty, Bell was a postdoctoral fellow with the Engineering Research Center for Computer-Integrated Surgical Systems and Technology at Johns Hopkins University and served as President of the Homewood Postdoc Association. Bell has published over 40 scientific journal articles and conference papers, holds a patent for SLSC beamforming, and is the recipient of numerous awards, grants, and fellowships, including the prestigious NIH K99\/R00 Pathway to Independence Award.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-9411","news","type-news","status-publish","hentry"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"\nMuyinatu Bell joins ECE as an Assistant Professor - 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-joins-ece-as-an-assistant-professor\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Muyinatu Bell joins ECE as an Assistant Professor - Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"Dr. Muyinatu Bell has joined the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering as an assistant professor.
