Biography

Robin Ji graduated from Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute in May 2015 with a Bachelor of Science in Biomedical Engineering and Electrical Engineering (Dual Major). Afterwards, Robin enrolled in the M.S./Ph.D program in the Biomedical Engineering Department at Columbia University, where his research interests lie in using focused ultrasound and microbubbles to disrupt the blood-brain barrier for drug delivery and microbubble cavitation imaging to predict the resulting bioeffects within the brain. His background in therapeutic ultrasound spans from preclinical testing to development and translation of the technology into the clinic.
