Research Interests
Our research group focuses on photonics and its applications to nano- and bio-technology. Broadly defined, we use the power of photonics for:
- Imaging the nano-world, especially in bio-compatible settings;
- Providing powerful solutions to global health related problems such as measurement of the cell count of HIV patients in resource limited settings;
- Rapid and parallel detection of hundreds of thousands of molecular level binding events targeting microarray based proteomics and genomics;
- Monitoring of the biological state of 3D engineered tissues.
