At a separate award ceremony during the same semester, he was also awarded the 2016-2017 Excellence in Research award by the College of Engineering and Computing at FIU.  Dr. Ramaswamy’s research interests lie primarily in the area of cell and engineered tissue mechanics with application in cardiovascular regenerative medicine. His laboratory, Tissue Engineered Mechanics, Imaging and Materials, (TEMIM LAB), conducts both experimental and computational investigations in this area.  A major goal of his lab currently is to develop functional tissue engineered heart valves (TEHVs) using 1) porcine small intestinal submucosa (PSIS) substrates and 2) mechanically regulate stem cells for the TEHV application as well as for (3) broader application in cardiovascular regenerative medicine. Concurrently the TEMIM lab is also working towards the elucidation of mechanobiological cellular and molecular mechanisms that are involved in the etiology of valve diseases, particularly aortic valve calcification.  A specific project in this area involves (4) the delineation of mechanosensitive fluid and structural conditions of the aortic valve due to elastin remodeling that may serve as an early indicator of calcific aortic valve disease (CAVD). Dr. Ramaswamy is a Fellow of the American Heart Association and its Council on Basic Cardiovascular Sciences. Dr. Ramaswamy is an author of over 50 published journals papers, book chapters and conference proceedings and has been a part of over 100 abstracts presented at Scientific Conferences.  He has mentored over 40 graduate/undergraduate students at FIU in a one-to-one format. His research has been supported by the AHA, NSF as well as academic and industry partners.\r\n\r\nCongratulations Dr. Ramaswamy on your accomplishments!\r\n\r\n<a href=\"https://bme.fiu.edu/wp-content/uploads/2018/09/IMG_1134.jpg\"><img class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-49800\" src=\"https://bme.fiu.edu/wp-content/uploads/2018/09/IMG_1134-300x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"300\" /></a> <a href=\"https://bme.fiu.edu/wp-content/uploads/2018/09/IMG_1132.jpg\"><img class=\"alignnone wp-image-49801 size-medium\" src=\"https://bme.fiu.edu/wp-content/uploads/2018/09/IMG_1132-225x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"225\" height=\"300\" /></a>','Sharan Ramaswamy Wins University and College-wide Awards for Research','','inherit','closed','closed','','49799-autosave-v1','','','2018-09-17 15:32:09','2018-09-17 19:32:09','',49799,'https://bme.fiu.edu/2018/09/49799-autosave-v1/',0,'revision','',0);

Nielsen Foundation. The grant will aid Zachary Danziger with his research into improving bladder reflexes following spinal cord injury using electrical nerve stimulation. The results will provide knowledge and potential new treatments for clinicians to implement a better way to manage the bladder dysfunction that follows spinal injury.\r\n\r\nUnder typical circumstances, the urinary bladder sends information to the brain and the brain sends command signals back to the bladder about when to initiate a void. However, after a spinal cord injury this back-and-forth communication between brain and bladder is severely disrupted. The result is that the bladder is no longer able to contract to void its contents - urine begins to accumulate, and catheterization is required to prevent damage to the rest of the urinary tract.\r\n\r\n[caption id=\"attachment_14228\" align=\"aligncenter\" width=\"300\"]<a href=\"https://bme.fiu.edu/wp-content/uploads/2017/06/Reflex-Diagram-v6-SCI-01-768x524-1.jpg\"><img class=\"wp-image-14228 size-medium\" src=\"https://bme.fiu.edu/wp-content/uploads/2017/06/Reflex-Diagram-v6-SCI-01-768x524-1-300x205.jpg\" alt=\"Reflex-Diagram-v6-SCI-01-768x524\" width=\"300\" height=\"205\" /></a> Diagram of Bladder Reflex[/caption]\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\nIn most cases, some form of reflex bladder contraction emerges during recovery from the initial spinal injury. However, this newly developed “compensatory reflex” is weaker than the original reflex and it does not act constructively with a relaxation of the urethral sphincter to void the bladder effectively. The compensatory reflex may also emerge too late to prevent negative changes that occur to the bladder following the initial spinal injury, such as harmful stretching from urine accumulation, and a toughening of the bladder wall that makes it more difficult to contract.\r\n\r\nZachary Danziger’s study will help to better understand the development of the compensatory reflex in quantitative terms. His study will also include speeding up the development of the compensatory reflex, as well as its effectiveness, by electrically stimulating the bladder nerves when the bladder would ordinarily void. This may strengthen the new reflex, potentially reduce the required frequency of intermittent catheterization, and prevent some lasting damage to the bladder and urinary tract.','Grant awarded to Zachary Danziger for bladder reflex conditioning research','','inherit','closed','closed','','6730-revision-v1','','','2017-11-14 11:09:53','2017-11-14 16:09:53','',6730,'https://bme.fiu.edu/2017/11/6730-revision-v1/',0,'revision','',0);

At the AEMB Annual Grand Meeting occurring at the BMES Annual Meeting, the National AEMB President recognized the FIU AEMB chapter for hosting events that include the faculty, such as the softball and soccer games, and encouraged other chapters to do the same. Our FIU AEMB chapter was awarded the “Most Active Chapter Award” on October 13, 2017 at the AEMB Annual Reception. During the academic year 2016-2017, the chapter grew by fourteen talented students who were invited thanks to their academic achievements. Within this period, various events were organized to promote networking skills of students, foster interaction with faculty, and prepare the students for the next step in their professional careers. FIU AEMB is fully committed to continue this trend and thus remain the most active AEMB chapter nationally.','Alpha Eta Mu Beta Awarded Most Active Chapter at BMES','','inherit','closed','closed','','14175-autosave-v1','','','2017-11-16 11:36:23','2017-11-16 16:36:23','',14175,'https://bme.fiu.edu/2017/11/14175-autosave-v1/',0,'revision','',0);

After graduation he joined the faculty of Bascom Palmer Eye Institute of University of Miami as an assistant professor and later the Department of Ophthalmology, Keck School of Medicine of University of Southern California as an associate professor. He moved to Florida International University in the Fall of 2012. He is currently a professor in the Department of Biomedical Engineering. His research interest is mainly focused on the development of innovative technologies for imaging and treatment of blinding eye diseases. His current research includes the technological development and application of Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT), Photoacoustic Microscopy, and Multimodal Functional Imaging for the early diagnosis and treatment monitoring of major blinding diseases like age related macular degeneration (AMD), diabetic retinopathy, and glaucoma. By the summer of 2018 he holds 7 patents, one of which was licensed to a leading ophthalmic technology development company, 3 patent applications, and several invention disclosures. His research has been continuously funded by the NIH through major research grants. He has also received funding from the department of defense, the Wallace Coulter Foundation, and the JDRF.\r\n<h2><b>Research</b></h2>\r\nWith aging of the population vision loss is becoming a major public health problem worldwide. According to NEI, blindness or low vision affects 3.3 million Americans age 40 and over and it is projected to reach 5.5 million by the year 2020. In US most types of blindness and low vision are related to retinal diseases. The diagnosis and treatment monitoring for retinal diseases highly rely on in vivo imaging technologies.\r\n\r\nThe long term goal of Dr. Jiao’s research is to help prevent and cure blindness through technological innovations. Dr. Jiao’s lab, the Ophthalmic Imaging Lab, is dedicated to the development of novel optical technologies for 3D high resolution imaging of the anatomy and functions of the eye in vivo. The optical imaging technologies the lab currently focuses on include Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT), Photoacoustic Microscopy, and Multimodal Imaging. These technologies serve as tools for the research and diagnosis of diseases such as age-related macular degeneration (AMD), glaucoma, and diabetic retinopathy. They also provide powerful tools for monitoring the functional regeneration of photoreceptors in regenerative medicine such as stem cell therapy.\r\n<ol>\r\n 	<li><strong>Optical Coherence Tomography</strong></li>\r\n</ol>\r\nOCT is a low-coherence interferometer-based noninvasive medical imaging modality that can provide high-resolution sectional images of biological tissues. Since it was first reported more than two decades ago, OCT has been used in a variety of medical research and diagnostic applications with the most successful being in ophthalmology for retinal sectional imaging. The interference signals of OCT can be detected in either time domain (TD-OCT) or spectral domain (SD-OCT). Spectral-domain detection has the advantages of fast imaging speed and better signal-to-noise ratio. Currently, SD-OCT has become one of the major retinal imaging techniques in ophthalmic clinics.\r\n\r\nDr. Jiao’s lab pioneered the use of high resolution SD-OCT in imaging small animal models of ocular diseases. Currently, SD-OCT plays an important role in ophthalmic research using animal models.\r\n<ol start=\"2\">\r\n 	<li><strong>Photoacoustic Microscopy</strong></li>\r\n</ol>\r\nPAM is an optical-absorption based microscopic imaging modality that detects laser-induced ultrasonic waves (photoacoustic waves) as a result of specific optical absorption. Photoacoustic ophthalmoscopy (PAOM) is a branch of PAM. PAOM is capable of imaging the physiologically-specific optical absorption contrast in the retina, which is missing in all existing ophthalmic imaging modalities. PAOM was first introduced in 2010 by Dr. Jiao’s lab together with his collaborators and has since achieved high-speed, high-resolution in vivo imaging of the vasculature of the retina and the pigmentation of the RPE in small animals.\r\n<ol start=\"3\">\r\n 	<li><strong>Multimodal imaging</strong></li>\r\n</ol>\r\nMultimodal imaging takes advantages of combining different contrast mechanisms to provide comprehensive anatomical and functional information of biological tissues. PAOM and OCT, PAOM and autofluorecence imaging, and OCT and autofluorescence imaging  are imaging modalities that can provide complementary contrasts for imaging biological tissues and are good candidates for an integrated multimodal system.\r\n<h2><b>Selected Publications</b></h2>\r\n1.

The National Academy of Inventors was founded to recognize and encourage inventors with patents to enhance the visibility of academic technology and innovation, educate and mentor innovative students, as well as translate the inventions of its members to benefit society. The NAI Fellows Selection Committee has chosen Dr. Jung as she “has demonstrated a highly prolific spirit of innovation in creating or facilitating outstanding inventions that have made a tangible impact on quality of life, economic development, and the welfare of society”. Dr. Pedro Hernandez states: \"Dr. Jung is not only an inventor and entrepreneur; she is a great teacher who instills in her students and research associates the love of inventing. <span class=\"s1\">Dr. Jung is a leading expert in neural engineering and computational neuroscience.  Her team at the FIU Adaptive Neural Systems Laboratory has developed the first implantable, wirelessly controlled, direct neural interface system for restoring sensations to amputees and has received FDA approval for conducting a first-in-human trial for this novel Class-III medical device system. My office has filed numerous patent applications related to this ground breaking neural interface system.\" </span>The induction ceremony will take place on April 5, 2018, at The Mayflower Hotel in Washington, D.C.. Dr. Jung will work with NAI in support of their mission to promote the importance of innovation and celebrate academic invention.

There, he earned both his bachelor’s and master’s degrees in materials science and engineering with a focus on biomaterials. Because of the quality of graduate education and technological advancements in the U.S. Moshkforoush decided to continue his education in the United States.\r\n\r\nMoshkforoush wanted to combine his interests in physiology, mathematics and physics, and use cutting-edge engineering approaches to help improve human health.\r\n\r\n“Biomedical engineering is a relatively new field which aims at improving the health and the quality of life of human beings, which I find highly rewarding,” said Moshkforoush. “I have always been interested in understanding the function of the brain during health and in the presence of a disease. I have also always been passionate about math. Choosing computational neuroscience as my path has given me the opportunity to apply my interest in math and computational approaches in finding potential treatment options for a variety of neurological disorders that are currently untreatable.”\r\n\r\nDespite offers from University of Oklahoma, a joint program between Umea University and University of California at Berkley, and University of California Riverside, Moshkforoush ultimately decided to attend FIU.\r\n\r\n“As an emerging school with highly collaborative research projects, experienced faculty members, and with high ambitions set in stone for the improvement of the university and students, I knew FIU was the right choice,” said Moshkforoush. “The opportunity to collaborate with highly-esteemed research groups from around the world, as well as the opportunities with industry partnerships, were among the main reasons I chose to pursue my Ph.D. at FIU’s Department of Biomedical Engineering.”\r\n\r\nMoshkforoush’s Ph.D. project, in collaboration with the Department of Pharmacology at the University of Vermont, focuses on understanding how neurons effectively communicate with blood vessels in the brain to deliver oxygen and nutrients to areas with high activity. This process is disrupted in a variety of pathological conditions including Alzheimer’s disease, stroke, and vascular dementia. The research involves understanding the interactions of various molecules at the cell level, and their integrated response at the tissue level resulting in the control of blood flow in different areas of the brain.\r\n\r\nMoshkforoush also works in collaboration with the mathematics department at the University of Minnesota which entails developing a mathematical method for the analysis of cortical spreading depression, a phenomenon closely related to migraine. Using this method, one can estimate the location, as well as the shape, of current sources from the brain during different neurological conditions. His work has recently been accepted for publication in the Journal of Neuroscience Methods.\r\n\r\nThe goal of Moshkforoush’s research is to understand the underlying mechanisms of physiological phenomena that are directly involved in various neurological disorders. Acquiring such knowledge would aid in the development of pharmacological manipulations aiming at treatment/prevention of these disorders. Moshkforoush and his team hope to develop a mathematical framework where such diseased states, and the effect of potential treatment strategies can be tested and analyzed.\r\n\r\n“We hope to have a positive contribution, however small, towards this goal,” said Moshkforoush.\r\n\r\n<img class=\"size-medium wp-image-7817 alignleft\" style=\"color: #333333; font-style: normal;\" src=\"https://bme.fiu.edu/wp-content/uploads/2018/07/IMG_20180706_165128_900-e1531145885212-252x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"252\" height=\"300\" />Aside from conducting impressive research, Moshkforoush has also dedicated his time as a teacher’s assistant at FIU. He served as a TA for more than 10 semesters. During this period, he had the privilege to work with hundreds of undergraduate and graduate students. In 2017, students and professors nominated him for the UGS Provost Award for Outstanding Teaching Assistant, and he was awarded the prestigious recognition.\r\n\r\nHe said, “Knowing that students felt like I was successful in transferring the course material to them and the fact that even after years and semesters from their class they would still come to me for advice or consultation, reassures me that becoming a university professor is what I would like to choose as my career path.”\r\n\r\nIn addition to Moshkforoush’s research contributions, and dedication towards students’ academics, he is involved in FIU’s Ping Pong A team. For the past three semesters, Moshkforoush, along with his team, have participated in the regional qualifications for the National Collegiate Table Tennis Association (NCTTA) tournaments in South Florida.\r\n\r\n<img class=\"size-medium wp-image-7816 alignright\" style=\"color: #333333; font-style: normal;\" src=\"https://bme.fiu.edu/wp-content/uploads/2018/07/20180708_133045-800x600-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" />He is also part of the FIU pool team. He put his skills to the test, and won first place in the university-wide qualification round for the regional ACUI 9-ball competitions in October 2017. In the regional ACUI 9-ball tournament for the state of Florida, held in March at FIU, he received the 2nd place. There, he qualified for the National Collegiate ACUI 9-ball tournament, which was held this May at Purdue University in West Lafayette, Indiana.','Doctoral student combines love of math and engineering to address neurological disorders','','inherit','closed','closed','','49467-revision-v1','','','2018-07-10 09:54:58','2018-07-10 13:54:58','',49467,'https://bme.fiu.edu/2018/07/49467-revision-v1/',0,'revision','',0);

Her head filled with engineering ideas to facilitate the doctors’ work and improve patient outcomes. It was at this moment that she knew she belonged in the biomedical engineering field.\r\n\r\nRiccio-Ackerman ’18 graduated recently with a bachelor’s degree in biomedical engineering and minors in chemistry and psychology. Through <a href=\"http://honors.fiu.edu/\">FIU’s Honors College</a>, she was offered multiple opportunities, one including the unique experience of shadowing neurosurgeons at Baptist Hospital.\r\n\r\n[caption id=\"attachment_125334\" align=\"alignright\" width=\"297\"]<img class=\"wp-image-125334\" src=\"https://bme.fiu.edu/wp-content/uploads/2018/08/BME-Research-Conference-12.48.21-PM.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"297\" height=\"297\" /> Francesca presenting her research[/caption]\r\n\r\nAs a member of the Honors College, Riccio-Ackerman had the opportunity to participate in ARCH (Advanced Research and Creativity in Honors), a year-long course where honors students work with top researchers at FIU, complete a thesis and present their findings at research conferences. She presented her work on the perception of touch and its intricacies in the hands as part of a larger prosthesis development project in the Adaptive Neural Systems Lab. Through this, she learned how to design and conduct experiments using devices that were prototyped with the use of 3D printing.\r\n\r\nThrough the Honors College, she was also able to take a course on biophysics of neural computation taught by Jorge Riera, associate professor for <a href=\"https://bme.fiu.edu/\">FIU’s Department of Biomedical Engineering</a>.“Francesca’s interest for neuroscience research amazed me from the very beginning. Her motivation will lead her towards even more success in the future,” said Riera.\r\n\r\nFrancesca’s tenure in the Honors College led her to excel in multiple aspects throughout her college career. “From the perspective of a biomedical engineer, the Honors College allowed me to take interdisciplinary courses, find mentorship, register early in classes and get involved in research. I would recommend it to any FIU student, particularly biomedical engineering students,” said Riccio-Ackerman. Additionally, Riccio-Ackerman had the opportunity to start an organization which created a community for students interested in neuroscience, cognitive sciences and biopsychology, calling it the Cognitive Neuroscience Society, where she also served as president.\r\n\r\n[caption id=\"attachment_125336\" align=\"alignleft\" width=\"366\"]<img class=\"wp-image-125336\" src=\"https://bme.fiu.edu/wp-content/uploads/2018/08/ANS-Lab-Students-12.48.21-PM.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"366\" height=\"274\" /> Students from ANS Lab[/caption]\r\n\r\nRiccio-Ackerman was a member of <a href=\"http://ans.fiu.edu/\">FIU’s Adaptive Neural Systems Lab</a>, where she studied the sense of touch in human hands and their interaction with objects. “We need this knowledge to develop neural prostheses that give the user a sense of touch,” said Riccio-Ackerman. In the lab, she worked under the mentorship of Ranu Jung, department chair and professor, and Liliana Rincon-Gonzalez, research assistant professor. “Francesca not only has a sharp intellect, but she is passionate about her mission and has the ability to achieve specific outcomes,” said Jung.\r\n\r\nDuring her last semester and as part of her senior design project, Riccio-Ackerman worked in collaboration with the Max Biedermann Institute of Biomechanics. She and her team worked on a product designed to decrease the cost of a device by 95 percent and increase efficiency by 98 percent. “This really opened my eyes to the solutions that problem-solving principles can achieve for low-budget environments. I’m hoping to use this mindset to strive for international health equity through my future work,” said Riccio-Ackerman.\r\n\r\nThis fall, Riccio-Ackerman will continue her studies at Scuola di Direzione Aziendale Bocconi (SDA) in Milan, Italy, where she will earn her master’s degree in international healthcare, economics and policy. “Although the location is a bit far from home in Miami, I could not pass up the opportunity to strengthen my presence in the international healthcare field,” said Riccio-Ackerman. Additionally, Riccio-Ackerman’s brother and his wife, both also FIU alumni, are starting an international healthcare company called Wellness Bulgaria, Inc. in their home country of Bulgaria. There, she plans to collaborate with her family to help facilitate relationships between uninsured or financially at-risk patients in the U.S. with the top surgeons in Bulgaria to provide the treatment they need at a low cost.\r\n\r\n[caption id=\"attachment_125335\" align=\"alignright\" width=\"303\"]<img class=\"wp-image-125335\" src=\"https://bme.fiu.edu/wp-content/uploads/2018/08/Shadowing-in-Bulgaria-12.48.21-PM.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"303\" height=\"303\" /> Francesca shadowing in Bulgaria[/caption]\r\n\r\nAs a biomedical engineer with a passion for achieving global healthcare equity, Riccio-Ackerman’s specialization in global health and development will allow her to not only learn about determinants and solutions for transnational healthcare issues, but will also offer a collaboration in Geneva with organizations like World Health Organization and the Red Cross. Working with these organizations, Francesca will gain tangible professional experience in the global healthcare field. Her goal is to combine her education at SDA Bocconi and connections in the international healthcare community to find new ways for disadvantaged populations to receive the healthcare they need.\r\n\r\nFollowing her master’s degree, Riccio-Ackerman plans to return to the United States to start medical school and pursue her passion for surgery. “I love being a student and constantly learning new ways to apply my knowledge to innovate and help others, to me, that’s the true heart of engineering.”\r\n\r\nDuring her time at FIU, Riccio-Ackerman was a recipient of FIU’s Presidential Scholarship, and within FIU’s Biomedical Engineering Department (BME), she was awarded the BME Excellence Scholarship, as well as the Coulter Undergraduate Research Excellence Scholarship. Francesca was also involved with FIU’s Student Government Association for two semesters as a senator for <a href=\"https://cec.fiu.edu/\">FIU’s College of Engineering and Computing</a>, a member of the Student Advocacy Committee, and a member of the Financial Committee. During her time as senator, she received the award for Senator of the Year for the 2017-2018 academic year. Additionally, she served on the executive board of the Muslim Student Association, as well as the Relay for Life Chair in Theta Tau, the Engineering Fraternity.','From a local operating room to Milan, biomedical engineering alumna excels','','publish','closed','closed','','from-a-local-operating-room-to-milan-biomedical-engineering-alumna-excels','','','2018-11-09 14:11:02','2018-11-09 19:11:02','',0,'https://bme.fiu.edu/?p=49530',0,'post','',0);

A major goal of the lab is to develop functional tissue engineered heart valves (TEHVs) using 1) porcine small intestinal submucosa (PSIS) substrates and 2) mechanically regulate stem cells for the TEHV application as well as for (3) broader application in cardiovascular regenerative medicine. Concurrently the TEMIM lab is also working towards the elucidation of mechanobiological cellular and molecular mechanisms that are involved in the etiology of valve diseases, particularly aortic valve calcification. A specific project in this area involves (4) the delineation of mechanosensitive fluid and structural conditions of the aortic valve due to elastin remodeling that may serve as an early indicator of calcific aortic valve disease (CAVD). In addition, at the cellular level, the lab is interested in identifying the fluid-induced mechanobiological responses of valve endothelial cells in valve homeostasis and in the development of CAVD. The research in the TEMIM lab has been supported by the AHA, the Miami Heart Research Institute, NSF, industry and academic funding sources.\r\n<h2><b>Selected Publications</b></h2>\r\n1) Rath S, Salinas M, Villegas A, Ramaswamy S.
