Dr. Michael Bailey is a Senior Principal Engineer at the Applied Physics Laboratory and an Associate Professor of Mechanical Engineering at the Unversity of Washington. His graduate training was in Nonlinear Acoustics and his postdoctoral training was in Cavitation. His dissertation was titled “Control of Acoustic Cavitation with Application to Lithotripsy,” and invented the use of dual sources for shock wave lithotripsy (SWL). He is the Program Director of an NIH NIDDK P01 DK043881 on kidney stone management, which he joined in 1996 and has been PI on R01 (DK92197), subcontract PI to 2 R01s on SWL (DK55674 and DK70618) and an R21 (DK81119). He has maintained R01-level funding on medical ultrasound and kidney stones from NASA since 2000. He was originally hired to APL on the DAPRA grant that created the first handheld ultrasound system and the company SonoSite. He has graduated 6 PhD students, 9 Urology residents, one Urology fellow, and 8 PhD postdocs. He has been primary mentor for a trainee on a T32 grant, K01 grant, and a Urology Cares Fellowship. He has also served as mentor on a second T32 grant and a K99 grant. He teaches courses on Nonlinear Acoustics and Medical Acoustics (ME 525 and 526) in the Mechanical Engineering Department, and has over 100 peer-reviewed publications. Dr. Bailey has developed an expertise in developing technology and working with UW Urology NIDDK, NASA, FDA, and UW tech transfer (CoMotion) to conduct clinical trials and transition technology to a commercial partner to enable clinical use. CoMotion has >10 issued patents and >50 pending utility or foreign patents that Bailey has authored. He has served on boards of the Acoustical Society of America, American Institute for Ultrasound in Medicine Bioeffects Committee, and International Society for Therapeutic Ultrasound.
