[cid:image005.jpg@01D9E598.BBA89E80] BME WEEKLY ROUNDTABLE WEEK OF SEPTEMBER 11, 2023 INTERIM HEAD’S NOTE * I want to highlight a few upcoming deadlines for big proposals. This is not meant to be an all-inclusive list. It just contains some items I am thinking of and/or I have been asked for opinion. I see these internal opportunities can help in many ways. Let me know how the department can help you. * The Supporting Partnering for Advanced Research Teamwork (SPARK) program, due yesterday afternoon, at 5 pm, https://www.purdue.edu/research/oevprp/funding-and-grant-writing/funding/spa... * Purdue University Federal Appropriation Request, due Friday, September 16, by 5 pm, https://www.purdue.edu/research/oevprp/funding-and-grant-writing/funding/fed.... * Purdue’s Life and Health Science summit. Please refer to an email sent to you on September 12. Proposals are due on September 29th. I like the two questions included in the email about the Purdue’s Life and Health Science summit. 1. How would this topic produce significant impact and benefit for the world? 2. Why is Purdue uniquely positioned relative to other research universities to be the leading institution in this area? Following no. 1, I would suggest you think about how this topic would produce significant impact and benefit for our region, our state. Following no. 2, I would suggest you think about why is Purdue BME uniquely positioned… * A few of us would like to revive the support of junior faculty on their grant applications. Your suggestions are welcome. I personally think the sounding board we had previously, was a good starting mechanism. * Our BME Advisory Board meeting will take place on Friday, September 22nd. I have asked many of you to come to give presentations and participate in panel discussions. All faculty are welcome to the lunch. We will do a reception at the end of the meeting featuring an exposition of art in research again, which can be in some sense viewed our tailgate. 😊 So please come out to celebrate the accomplishments in the unusual mechanism of artistic manifestation by our students/postdocs and their faculty mentors. As a final note, here is a friendly reminder. The deadline for grad students and post docs to submit your art work is September 13th, 11:59 pm.

MJIS Updates Our semi-annual air handling shutdown is tentatively scheduled for Tuesday, October 10th. As a reminder: the entire building air handling system in MJIS will be turned off. ALL chemical hood activity, biosafety cabinet activity, autoclave work and activities in wet labs will need to STOP by 5 PM on Monday, October 9th. Any chemicals stored in the hoods will have to be sealed at that time. Signs will be posted on all hoods to remind users not to use the hoods Monday evening, and removed when the maintenance work is completed and normal operations can resume. Please plan ahead - DO NOT use chemicals in the lab areas that you would normally use in the hoods. Graduate Committee and Grad Programs Update: * As the semester gets underway, remember that graduate students enrolled in research will need to meet with their primary faculty mentors to set research expectations (see attached) for the semester and then the faculty member will need to alert the graduate school when these requirements are set for each RA you are mentoring. These meetings are also a good time to review Student-Advisor Expectation Scales (see attached) as well as IDPs (individualized Development Plans - see links below) with each student you mentor to help them set goals for the semester and year ahead. * BME IDP-Year 1<https://engineering.purdue.edu/BME/Academics/Graduate/Prof_Development/IDP_Year%201_BME_v2.pdf> * BME IDP-Year 2<https://engineering.purdue.edu/BME/Academics/Graduate/Prof_Development/IDP_Year%202_BME_v1.pdf> * BME IDP-Years 3+ <https://engineering.purdue.edu/BME/Academics/Graduate/Prof_Development/IDP_Years%203_BME_v1.pdf> https://engineering.purdue.edu/BME/Academics/Graduate/PhDMilestones/PhD_Mile...

Kim, advisor), Mon., Sept. 11, 3:00 p.m., MJIS 2001 and via Zoom. Title: Tissue Optics-Informed Hyperspectral Learning for Mobile Health. Examining committee members: Dr. Young L. Kim, Chair, Dr. Craig J. Goergen, Dr. Jacqueline Linnes, Dr. George T. Chiu (ME) Abstract: Blood hemoglobin (Hgb) testing is a widely used clinical laboratory test for various patient care needs. However, conventional blood Hgb measurements involve invasive blood sampling, causing iatrogenic blood loss. Although noninvasive blood Hgb prediction methods are under development, their performance often does not align with clinical laboratory blood Hgb tests. Optical spectroscopy can provide reliable blood Hgb tests, but its diagnostic applications are limited by bulky optical components, high costs, and slow data acquisition. Mobile health (mHealth) colorimetric diagnostics have a potential for point-of-care blood Hgb testing. However, achieving diagnostic color accuracy is a complex matter, affected by device models, light conditions, and image file formats. To address these limitations, we propose biophysics-based algorithms that combine hyperspectral learning and spectroscopic gamut-informed learning for reliable mHealth blood Hgb quantification. The palpebral conjunctiva serves as an ideal peripheral tissue site, owing to its easy accessibility, relatively uniform microvasculature, and absence of skin pigmentation. First, hyperspectral learning reconstructs a high-resolution spectrum of the palpebral conjunctiva from red-green-blue values of a digital camera, eliminating the need for complex and costly optical instrumentation. Second, spectroscopic analyses of peripheral tissue establish a unique color gamut and design diagnostic reference colors highly sensitive to blood Hgb. Informed by tissue optics and machine vision, the Hgb gamut-based learning algorithm offers device/light/format-agnostic color recovery of the palpebral conjunctiva. This mHealth blood Hgb assessment exhibits comparable accuracy to capillary blood sampling tests over a wide range of blood Hgb values. Importantly, a single-shot photograph allows noninvasive, continuous, and real-time Hgb readings in resource-limited and at-home settings. Furthermore, our biophysics-based digital health approaches can lay the foundation for personalized medicine and facilitate the tempo of clinical translation.

Bomyi Lim, PhD, Department of Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering and Department of Cell and Developmental Biology, Perelman School of Medicine, University of Pennsylvania, will present “Imaging Genetics: Dynamic Gene Control in Space and Time.” Abstract: Proper gene control across space and time is crucial for the seamless execution of various cellular functions, as too much or too little gene expression in the wrong place or time leads to developmental defects and disease phenotypes. While the importance of gene regulation is well acknowledged, systematic characterization of dynamic gene control is lacking. What is the “normal” range of gene expression, and how does transcriptional kinetics play a role? We employ quantitative live imaging to examine the structure-function relationships of genome topology and gene activity and ultimately relate it to phenotypes. We first systematically varied the distance and orientation between an enhancer and the target promoter and analyzed the changes in transcriptional dynamics. To gain further insights into the kinetics of E-P interactions, we employed the trans-activation (transvection) assay and utilized the DNA and RNA labeling to measure the long-range E-P interaction kinetics and its relationship with transcription. Our study provides a comprehensive characterization of the E-P interaction dynamics required for transcription and normal development Biography: Bomyi Lim obtained B.S. in Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering from University of Pennsylvania in 2010. Bomyi received her Ph.D. in Chemical and Biological Engineering from Princeton University in 2015. She worked as an NIH F32 postdoctoral fellow at the Lewis-Sigler Institute of Genomics at Princeton University between 2016-2017. In 2018, she joined University of Pennsylvania as an Assistant Professor of Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering. The Lim lab focuses on characterizing the normal range of gene expression kinetics that ensures normal development, using a combination of genome editing, quantitative live imaging, and mathematical modeling.

Professor Edward Bartlett (BioSci and BME) will present “Spatially-specific, closed-loop, infrared thalamocortical deep brain stimulation.” Abstract: Deep brain stimulation (DBS) is a powerful clinical tool for the treatment of circuit-based neurological disorders such as Parkinson’s disease and obsessive-compulsive disorder. Electrical DBS is, however, limited by the spread of stimulus currents into tissue unrelated to treatment, potentially causing abhorrent patient side effects. In this work, we utilize infrared neural stimulation (INS), an optical neuromodulation technique which uses near to mid infrared light, to drive graded excitatory and inhibitory responses in nerves and neurons, to facilitate an optical and spatially constrained DBS paradigm. INS has been shown to provide spatially constrained responses in the cochlea and in cortical neurons. Unlike other optical techniques, INS does not require genetic modification of neural targets. In this study, we show that INS produces graded, biophysically relevant single-unit responses with robust information transfer in thalamocortical circuits. Importantly, we show that cortical spread of activation from thalamic INS produces more spatially constrained response profiles than conventional electrical stimulation. Owing to observed spatial precision, we used deep reinforcement learning to close the loop on thalamocortical INS, creating real time representations of stimulus-response dynamics while driving cortical neurons to precise firing patterns. Our data suggest that INS can serve as a spatially precise and for both open and closed-loop DBS.

Alves, PhD, within the Department of Emergency Medicine at the Indiana University School of Medicine (IUSM), is seeking a highly motivated and independent post-doctoral research fellow. Dr. Alves is a Chemical and Biomolecular Engineer, Associate Professor and the Director of Translational Research for the Department of Emergency Medicine in addition to having an affiliate faculty appointment at Purdue University in Biomedical Engineering. The Alves Lab explores highly interdisciplinary research interests applying engineering and biophysical principles and designs to create translational technologies and treatments in the area of blood coagulation and fibrinolysis. The primary focus of research in the laboratory is to develop targeted clot digesting therapeutic agents to more safely digest clinically relevant blood clots to treat pulmonary embolism (PE, blood clots in the lungs), deep vein thrombosis (DVT), and ischemic stroke. This interdisciplinary research utilizes diverse enzyme assays, chemical synthesis, blood clot formation and digestion assays under shear, and other novel testing/delivery platforms that include multivalent branched molecules and nanoparticle drug delivery systems. Projects Include: (1) Leveraging multivalency to modulate enzyme activity and improve inhibitor selectivity (nanoparticle drug delivery and targeting). (2) Ex-vivo flowing models of clot digestion under shear using in-vivo like fluorescently labeled blood clots from human whole blood. (3) Development of novel fibrinolytic diagnostics tools to assess coagulation state. (4) Mouse models of clot formation/targeting/digestion utilizing intravital microscopy. (5) Study the effects of environmental microplastic exposure on coagulation/fibrinolysis. Projects are funded both externally and internally.
