Muyinatu "Bisi" A. Lediju Bell is a researcher and faculty member. She is the John C. Malone Associate Professor of Biomedical Engineering, Electrical and Computer Engineering, and Computer Science at Johns Hopkins University. She is also the director of the Photoacoustic and Ultrasonic Systems Engineering Laboratory.
She has received an
Early life and education
Bell grew up in
In 2012, she finished her PhD and was also selected to take part in the University of Michigan NextProf workshop.[5] Her graduate dissertation research was supported by a UNCF/Merck Graduate Dissertation Fellowship. Bell became a postdoctoral fellow at Johns Hopkins University, working in the centre for Computer-Integrated Surgical Systems and Technology. Her postdoctoral appointment was supported by both UNCF/Merck and the Ford Foundation.[6][7]
Career and research
Bell joined the faculty of Johns Hopkins University as an interim assistant research professor.[1] She works with the Laboratory for Computational Sensing and Robotics to develop systems that can control individual ultrasound and photoacoustic components.[1] She is exploring various medical robots for treating and diagnosing medical conditions.[6] She launched an online course, Introduction to Medical Imaging, on Udemy in 2015. That year she was awarded a National Institutes of Health K99/R00 Pathway to Independence Award.[8] This allowed her to evaluate coherence-based photoacoustic image guidance for transsphenoidal surgery.[9] She holds a patent in short-lag spatial coherence beamforming,[10] which can be used for photoacoustic image guidance of medical procedures such as skull base surgery[11] or prostate brachytherapy.[12] She provided a free MATLAB toolbox UltraSound Toolbox to help process ultrasonic signals.[13] In 2016, she founded PULSE, the Photoacoustic and Ultrasonic Systems Engineering Laboratory.[1][14] She was included in the MIT Technology Review 2016 list of 35 Innovators Under 35.[15][16]
Bell joined the faculty of biomedical engineering at
Bell is a senior member of both the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE)[33] and SPIE.[34] She regularly attends IEEE and SPIE conferences,[34][35] she is active in the IEEE Women in Engineering community,[36][37] and she supports SPIE women in optics activities.[38][39][40]
