Research Focus
Dr. Gianmarco Pinton's lab at the University of North Carolina Chapel Hill focuses on developing innovative ultrasound technologies for brain imaging and therapy. By using volumetric ultrasound, the lab aims to enable real-time monitoring and targeted neuromodulation of brain circuits in awake animals. This research has the potential to improve the understanding of brain function and lead to advanced treatments for neurological disorders.
