# Shapiro Lab
**Aliases:** Mikhail Shapiro laboratory
**Entity class:** Organization or institution
**Collection:** [[collections/Neurotech|Neurotech]]
## Definition
**Shapiro Lab** is an organization or institution. Shapiro Lab develops [[wiki/gas-vesicle acoustic biomolecules for ultrasound imaging|gas-vesicle acoustic biomolecules for ultrasound imaging]]. Genetically encoded/engineered acoustic molecular agents. critical biology↔ultrasound bridge. The entry centers on the organization's documented work, partners, users, and institutional lineage, so its own role remains distinct from the roles of adjacent programs and technologies.
