Building better ultrasound tools for the diagnosis and treatment of disease 

Courses Summaries 

FUNDAMENTAlS of Bioengineering II (Bioe252, beginning winter 2027)

This course introduces students to foundational principles in bioengineering. Topics include linear circuits, Fourier transforms, fluid pressure, the Bernoulli Equation, conservation principles in fluid control volumes, and laminar fluid flow.

Requisites: Prereq: MATH 247 or MATH 252Z; recommend co-req: PHYS 202 or PHYS 252.

 

Science Outreach in the Keller Lab

We believe that stepping beyond the academic ivory tower is essential not only for translating research into public awareness and impact, but also for inspiring more young people into pursuing careers in STEM. The Keller lab has had the pleasure of designing and running public-facing outreach activities and hosting local students in the lab, and are looking forward to continuing this as we grow!

The Keller Lab 

Founded in 2026, the Keller Lab is a therapeutic ultrasound research group within the University of Oregon's Phil and Penny Knight Campus for Accelerating Scientific Impact. Based in the Department of Bioengineering in Eugene, Oregon, the Keller Lab develops image-guided ultrasound technologies for targeted diagnosis and therapy.
