We hosted visiting scholar Ariana Cihan at Duke!

May 31, 2026

The Nightingale lab hosted visiting scholar Ariana Cihan from Ghent University. Ariana's research focus is in poroelastic and anisotropic material characterization. She developed an experimental setup involving our robot-controlled 3D-RSWEI system here at Duke to measure shear wave speed in tissues-of-interest! Apart from her work she spent her time sharing extremely useful insights in biomechanics, and exploring Durham.

We wish her the best in all of her future endeavors!
