    Biography

    Bilal Nizami holds a Doctor of Pharmacy degree from the University of Karachi and later obtained his MSc degree in Nanomedicine through the Erasmus Mundus Joint Master’s Degree program between the Université Paris Cite, Université d’Angers, University of Pavia and the University of Patras.

    During his master’s thesis he worked on the development of a novel in vitro Blood Brain Barrier model using human induced pluripotent stem cells in the lab of Prof. Gert Fricker at the University of Heidelberg. In 2022, he started his PhD in Medical-Surgical Biotechnologies and Translational Medicine under Professor Nicola Toschi. Currently, he works on using focused ultrasound to disrupt the blood brain barrier to aid the delivery of therapeutic agents. His research also focuses on non-invasive neuromodulation, involving the study of the neuromodulatory effects of magnetic nanoparticles in vivo in autistic models.

    • Ex vivo localization of wireless implantable microdevice using high-resolution 3D imaging techniques
      on 18 June 2026

      The CROSSBRAIN EU project aims to address the heterogeneous nature of brain pathologies by developing wireless implantable microbots (µBots, planned dimensions 100 × 100 × 100 μm³) for highly localized neuromodulation. These devices are designed to precisely modulate brain activity with minimal invasiveness, enabling targeted resolution of specific spatiotemporal events, capabilities not currently achieved by existing neuromodulation technologies. A crucial step involves visualizing and ensuring...

    • Ultrasound-Assisted multimodal neuromodulation via nanosystems
      on 19 April 2026

      Neuromodulation techniques have emerged as transformative tools for treating several neurological and psychiatric disorders, offering alternatives to traditional pharmacological approaches often hindered by the blood-brain barrier and off-target effects. While conventional modalities like deep brain stimulation, transcranial magnetic stimulation, and optogenetics have shown promise, they each face limitations in invasiveness, spatial resolution, or clinical applicability. In recent years,...

    • Magnetite nanodiscs as vortex-enhanced MRI contrast agents: a novel approach in medical imaging
      on 9 April 2026

      Magnetic nanodiscs (MNDs) represent a transformative class of anisotropic magnetic nanoparticles with intrinsic vortex magnetization, enabling multifunctional applications in biomedical imaging and therapy. Here, we demonstrate their potential as dual-mode magnetic resonance (MR) contrast agents, a unique feature which is enabled by the high longitudinal relaxivity (r (1) ≈ 40 mM^(-1) s^(-1)) at ultralow magnetic fields (<70 µT) in combination with strong transverse relaxivity (r (2) > 150...
