Jeeun Kang, Ph.D., is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Anesthesiology and Critical Care Medicine (ACCM) at the Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine in Baltimore, MD, USA. He is also a co-director of the Medical UltraSound Imaging and Intervention Collaboration (MUSiiC) research laboratory within the Laboratory for Computational Sensing and Robotics at the Whiting School of Engineering.
Dr. Kang’s research focuses on biomedical ultrasound and photoacoustic imaging of structural, functional, and molecular contrast dynamics in the spatiotemporal domain to provide improved quantitative metrics in clinical settings.
Dr. Kang has published extensively and presented his work internationally at numerous conferences and symposia, earning several awards and recognitions. He serves on the editorial boards of PLoS One, Frontiers in Medical Technology, and Frontiers in Neuroscience and is a member of the IEEE Ultrasonics, Ferroelectrics, and Frequency Control Society and the International Society for Optics and Photonics (SPIE).
His research interests include the translational engineering of biomedical imaging and therapeutic devices that harness light and sound in effective form factors. Specifically, Dr. Kang is actively investigating non-invasive neuromonitoring techniques for assessing neurovascular physiology and electrophysiology to predict brain distress in fetal, neonatal, and pediatric patients; high-precision tool tracking for interventional guidance; and molecular imaging and quantification of early disease biomarkers. As a holder of more than 20 patents, he is committed to the clinical translation of his technological advances.
