    Saleh Ramezani BIOGRAPHICAL SKETCH NAME: Saleh Ramezani POSITION TITLE: Graduate Research Assistant EDUCATION/TRAINING INSTITUTION AND LOCATION DEGREE COMPLETION DATE FIELD OF STUDY Louisiana Tech University, Ruston B.S 05/2008 Biomedical Engineering Louisiana Tech University, Ruston M.S 05/2011 Biomedical Engineering A. Personal Statement I am passionate about the opportunity to do research in an interdisciplinary group and solve problems that impact the medical community in a positive manner. I chose biomedical engineering as my undergraduate major because I was fascinated by the application of engineering in medicine. My first exposure to research was as an undergraduate at Louisiana Tech University, where I worked on a nanoparticle drug delivery project. My graduate research involved the design of a computational neural model for a sub-region of the hippocampus. As a research assistant in the Preclinical Nuclear Imaging Laboratory at UT Southwestern, I participated in a broad range of translational studies. In Dr. Xiankai Sun’s laboratory, learned the essential skills for carrying out preclinical PET, CT, SPECT, and MRI experiments. My current research in Drs. Farach-Carson and Bhattacharya builds logically upon my prior research experiences. The aims of my research are to 1) build an expanded cell surface marker antibody library for targeted hyperpolarized (HP) imaging that will recognize a majority, if not all, colorectal cancer (CRC) lesions, and 2) perform proof-of-concept experiments to demonstrate specific targeting and signal
