Celebrating Focused Ultrasound
1
Welcome from the FUS Foundation Chairman Dear Friends, Welcome to Celebrating Focused Ultrasound: The Future is Now. This special gathering marks two important milestones: recognizing the remarkable progress the focused ultrasound field has achieved in recent years and celebrating the 20th anniversary of the Foundation. Over the past two decades – together with the partnership of clinicians, researchers, industry leaders, and supporters – we have transformed focused ultrasound from a concept into a global, revolutionary therapeutic technology improving lives across a growing range of diseases. The technology is now accepted as a critical element in the therapeutic armamentarium. More than one million patients worldwide have benefited from focused ultrasound. Today, more than 600 stakeholders from across the field have come together to showcase the progress that brought us here; honor the pioneers, supporters, and patients who helped shape this journey; and look ahead to the breakthroughs that will define the next decade. The Foundation team has curated two and a half days of exciting panel discussions, fireside chats, and expert talks. We have also dedicated time to highlighting the impact our work has on patients. Patients will take the stage alongside researchers and clinicians to share how focused ultrasound has transformed their lives. Please visit the impressive poster hall and speak with the researchers on the cutting edge of the field. I want to thank our more than 60 sponsors who have contributed to making this event a success. Many of them have a booth in the exhibit hall, and I encourage you to set aside time to connect with these important stakeholders during networking breaks and lunches. On behalf of the entire Focused Ultrasound Foundation team, we thank you for joining us and we look forward to celebrating how far the field has come and the future we are building together. Be well, Neal F. Kassell, MD Chairman, Focused Ultrasound Foundation

Celebrating Focused Ultrasound
Positioned at the nexus of a large, diverse group of stakeholders comprising the focused ultrasound community, the Foundation functions as an independent, unbiased third party, aligning organizations into a cohesive ecosystem with a single goal: to make this technology available to patients in the shortest time possible. It strives to catalyze progress while instilling a patient-centric sense of urgency. The Foundation works to clear the path to global adoption by organizing and funding research, fostering collaboration at our various workshops and symposia, building awareness, and cultivating the next generation through internships and fellowships. The Foundation is on the leading edge of the venture philanthropy and social entrepreneurship movements and is a model of how private philanthropy can work in concert with academia, industry, and government to bridge the gap between research and commercialization.
