Winter School on Therapeutic Ultrasound 2023

March 2023

In March 2023 Amelia and Rachel attended a one week course in Les Houches, France, on Therapeutic Ultrasound, hosted by Ecole de Physiques des Houches. 

Lectures and Presentations included:

  • Focusing Ultrasound in complex media: the role of Time Reversal Mirrors, by Jean-Francois Aubry

  • Histology for therapeutic ultrasound, by Gail ter Haar

  • Histotripsy, by Vera Khokhlova

  • and many more interesting talks 

The school was also a great opportunity to meet other PhD students and learn about the amazing work they are doing.
