Amir Manbachi
Amir Manbachi is a Iranian-Canadian scientist, inventor, and entrepreneur in the field of ultrasound.[1] His research and inventions[lower-alpha 1] are primarily centered around spine and brain surgeries. Manbachi is an Assistant Professor of Neurosurgery at Johns Hopkins' School of Medicine.He is the director of the Johns Hopkins' HEPIUS lab.[lower-alpha 2][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9]
Background[edit]
Manbachi is Canadian of Iranian descent.[10][11]
He conducted his doctoral studies under the supervision of ultrasound connoisseur, Richard S.C. Cobbold at the University of Toronto.[12]
He studied at the University of Toronto where he graduated with a bachelor's degree in Applied Sciences (BASc) from the Engineering Science (Physics) program in 2008.In 2010, he got his master's degree, and in 2015 he got a PhD in biomedical engineering from University of Toronto.[13]
During his post-doctoral research at Harvard and MIT's Division of Health Sciences Technology,[lower-alpha 3] his mentor was Ali Khademhosseini.[14][15]
In 2020, and as part of a team jointly led by Nicholas Theodore at Johns Hopkins Medicine, Manbachi and his team received a $13.5M grant from the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) to develop wearable and implantable ultrasound technologies for patients with spinal cord injuries.[16][17]
Career[edit]
As of December 2022, Manbachi is an Assistant Professor of neurosurgery, biomedical engineering, mechanical engineering, electrical and computer engineering, Anesthesiology, and Critical Care Medicine at Johns Hopkins University. He is a member of the Biomedical Engineering Society, the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), and the Society of Photo-Optical Instrumentation Engineers (SPIE).He is credited with dozen patents and patent applications pertaining to medical devices for wearable and implantable ultrasound probes.[18] Manbachi studied the utility of machine learning to automatically detect and localize foreign body objects on intraoperative ultrasound images.[19] Another example of his work includes the design and fabrication of implantable ultrasound sensors to monitor brain tumor regrowth following surgeries.[20][21] Manbachi's work has been recently recognized by Baltimore Business Journal’s 40 under 40 award.[18]
