IMG Member Ladan Jiracek recently presented at the Society for Neuroscience Conference in San Diego, California! He presented his work, “Tissue-Engineered Electronic Nerve Interfaces (TEENI): Improved Design, Fabrication, and Packaging Using Aggressive In Vitro Reliability Testing”. Thank you for representing IMG so well!
At the 68th International Electron Devices Meeting (IEDM) taking place in San Francisco this week, UF ECE and IMG Ph.D. students Tahmid Kaisar and Enamul Yousuf, Prof.
Congratulations to IMG Members Meisam Habibi Matin and Adam Kriz, and Dr. Saeed Moghaddam on their recent journal publication in Applied Thermal Engineering! Titled “Annular liquid film thermohydraulic and intermittent dryout in microchannel flow boiling,” this work fully resolves the intermittent dryout process in annular liquid film flow and uses interfacial shear stress to predict flow regime transition.

For several decades implantable bioelectronic neural interfaces have provided significant health benefits for patients suffering from various neurological diseases, deficits, or injuries. As the channel counts have increased, often so to do the therapeutic benefits of neuromodulation-based therapy. However, the lack of development of implantable connector technology for high-channel-count implants is limiting their successful development and translation to clinical trials. Existing commercial implant connector technology is limited to low channel counts (8 ch/lead).
Congratulations to Morteza Alipanahrostami and Minh-Chau Le for representing Dr. Hugh Fan’s Lab at the 2022 ASME IMECE conference in Columbus, Ohio (Oct. 30-Nov. 3)! Morteza presented his paper titled: “Integration of Minivalves with RNA Amplification Device for Simultaneous Detection of SARS-CoV-2 and Influenza Viruses”. Minh-Chau presented her paper on “Microfluidic Devices for Isolating and Releasing Disseminated Tumor Cells in Bone Marrow.” Go Gators!
