Congratulations to Sedigheh (Sedy) Sheykholeslami Poul who successfully defended her PhD thesis titled “Characterizations of Viscoelastic Liver Tissue Based on Shear Wave Elastography and Ultrasound Wave Speckle Statistics.” Sedy's public defense took place on Tuesday, April 4, 2023, immediately followed by a closed-door defense session. Sedy has been supervised by Professor Kevin Parker. Her PhD committee was chaired by Professor Diane Dalecki (Biomedical Imaging), and included Professors John Lambropoulos and Douglas Kelley (Mechanical Engineering), and Professor Mark Buckley (Biomedical Engineering). Sedy has accepted a position as a postdoctoral research fellow at the University of Michigan. She will be working in the Ultrasound Lab of Dr. Oliver Kripfgans.
