Radiology and Radiological Science in the Johns

Health's new EUREKA (for Exceptional, Unconventional
Research Enabling Knowledge Acceleration)
grants.
According to the NIH, EUREKA grants are provided to
fund "exceptionally innovative research
projects that could have extraordinarily significant impact
on many areas of science."
Bulte's award, from the National Institute on Drug

years and will be used to develop a new method, called
magnetic particle imaging, of visualizing
transplanted stem cells in the brains of animals with
stroke.
