• ITMO Researchers Discover New Acoustic Force for More Accurate Shape-Based Sorting of Cells

  Scientists at ITMO University have found a new lateral recoil force that affects non-spherical particles in an acoustic field. The new force will make it easier to extract cells of a certain shape from blood or other liquids – such as elongated platelets or spherical leukocytes – which will be useful for developing new, more accurate, and affordable methods for diagnosing various diseases. The findings were reported in Physical Review Applied and highlighted in Physics Magazine.

• ITMO Researchers Propose New Wireless Power Transfer System For MRI Scanners

  Scientists from ITMO’s Faculty of Physics have developed an antenna capable of capturing energy from alternating magnetic fields within MRI scanners and relaying it to additional devices used inside such systems. The technology can harvest nearly twice as much energy as its counterparts, thus representing a new significant step towards eliminating wires and expensive batteries from MRI equipment.
