DESCRIPTION:Recent years have witnessed rapid advances in diagnostic techno
 logies spanning magnetic\, optical\, mechanical\, and electrochemical moda
 lities.\nDespite this progress\, a critical gap remains: the need for diag
 nostic platforms that are accessible\, accurate\, and cost-effective for r
 outine clinical and translational use. In this talk\, I will focus on emer
 ging magnetic technologies that leverage magnetic nanoparticles and their 
 unique physical properties to address pressing biomedical challenges. I wi
 ll first highlight ongoing research in my laboratory on the synthesis\, do
 ping\, surface functionalization\, and physicochemical characterization of
  magnetic nanoparticles\, with applications in magnetic resonance imaging 
 (MRI) and magnetic hyperthermia therapy. I will then revisit the magnetic 
 particle spectroscopy (MPS) technology I developed at the University of Mi
 nnesota\, emphasizing its use in sensitive and quantitative in-vitro biose
 nsing. Finally\, I will describe our current efforts to develop a benchtop
  magnetic particle imaging (MPI) platform\, aimed at enabling quantitative
  imaging and image-guided precision oncology.\n\nSpeaker(s): Kai\n\nVirtua
