Generate a tailored SOP for Dr. Zhen Xu. Improve your application with a focused, well-structured draft.
Dr. Zhen Xu is the Li Ka Shing Endowed Professor of Biomedical Engineering at the University of Michigan. His research focuses on developing new ultrasound techniques for the treatment of cancer and cardiovascular and neurological diseases. Dr. Xu and his colleagues invented histotripsy, a mechanical ultrasound ablation technique that is controlled by cavitation. Histotripsy is a non-invasive, non-ionizing, and non-thermal ablation technique that has led to multiple clinical trials and FDA approval for treating liver tumors. His work encompasses basic science, device development, preclinical investigations, and clinical translation. Dr. Xu's efforts are directed towards improving medical treatment through innovative technologies in ultrasound and biomedical imaging.
