CICaSS are a multi-disciplinary team of
physicists and engineers working at the
interface with life sciences and medicine.
Our goal is to produce creative technological
solutions to the outstanding biomedical
challenges of our time. To that end, we
proactively develop strategic, physics-driven
concepts, that are convergent with
emerging biotechnologies. Our present
focus seeks to exploit the power of
ultrasound for non-invasive drug delivery
and includes projects on:
