Dr. Andrew Smith from the University of Illinois has developed new quantum dots with a multidentate polymer coating that minimizes size while maintaining stability and improving efficiency of conjugation. Quantum dots are promising agents for cellular and molecular imaging, but their bulky organic coatings have limited their use in cells. Dr. Smith's quantum dots are small, stable, and can be conjugated to targeting molecules and purified easily.

Dr. Hergenrother from the University of IL has developed a novel antibiotic that is effective against certain antibiotic-resistant gram-negative bacteria. His powerful predictive algorithm determines accumulation of molecules in Gram-negative bacteria and enables conversion of known Gram-positive only antibiotics into novel compounds with Gram-negative potency.
Dr. Brad Sutton from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign has developed a fully automated workflow to generate 3D digital heart models directly from MR scans. This workflow can be used by non-experts to create hi-fidelity models of the heart for surgical planning.

Dr. Meng from the University of Illinois has developed a new synthetic compound eye (SCE) gamma camera design where each gamma camera panel consists of a large number micro-camera elements (MCE’s). The new deveice has the potential of 10-100 times greater sensitivity over the current commercial devices, while offering a comparable spatial resolution. It could significantly improve the capability of SPECT imaging for many diagnosis applications, such as cardiac and brain imaging.

Dr. Pengfei Song has developed methods of real-time SR-UMI. Current SR-UMI requires hours of data post-processing, making it impractical for clinical, diagnostic applications. Implementing advances in deep learning and parallel computing, Dr. Song's team was able to realize real-time microbubble signal extraction, separation, localization, tracking, and quantitative analysis and display. This technology has a wide range of clinical applications including but not limited to the diagnosis and characterization of many disorders including cancer, cardiovascular disease, and neurological diseases.
