Dmitry Grishenkov Ph.D.

My main research interest and experience is attributed to Contrast Enhanced Medical Imaging and Therapy. In particular, experimental and theoretical work concerns characterization of structural and physical properties of ultrasound contrast agents, investigation of the nature and mechanism of sonoporation and cavitation, understanding of the dynamics of multiphase medium in biomedical applications. In collaboration with Karolinska Institute development of novel contrast agent of combined functionality for tissue specific diagnostics and also localized drug delivery is carried out. Latest Education interest is on the development of the new MSc programme in Innovative Technology for Healthy Living. The programme focuses on the technical solutions for wellness and active lifestyles. Big data obtained from sensors and wearables worn by regular citizens and professional athletes will be translated into contributions to healthy living for the general population, boosting public health initiatives and wellness innovations. Graduates from the programme will be R&D specialists with strong innovation and entrepreneurial skills, able to create bridges between human science, technology and health.
