Research Experience (post-2010)
(2017-present) Computational Imaging Lab, UC Berkeley, CA
(2011-2016) Biophotonics Lab, Duke University, Durham NC (under guidance of Dr. Joseph Izatt)
(2009-2011) BIOS Lab, Duke University, Durham NC (under guidance of Dr. Adam Wax)
- Currently serving as a postdoctoral scholar in the lab of Dr. Laura Waller
- Served key roles in the development of computational imaging systems focusing on high-throughput (gigapixel scale) fluorescence imaging and ultrahigh resolution (<150 nm) 3D refractive-index tomography
- Actively collaborating with the UC Davis Department of Pathology, the Chan Zuckerberg Biohub, and the UC Berkeley Biology department
(2011-2016) Biophotonics Lab, Duke University, Durham NC (under guidance of Dr. Joseph Izatt)
- Authored 7 peer-reviewed publications with currently one more in revision (all as first-author). First author on 10 conference publications, and 1 patent application.
- Developed fundamental theory for generalized multimodal super-resolution microscopy and showed implementation in custom designed microscope
- Collaborated with biologists and pathologists to demonstrate super-resolution visualization of relevant biological samples, with emphasis on resolving structures at size scales <150nm with multiple forms of contrast.
- Regularly presented unique research at conferences to research groups of 100-200 people.
(2009-2011) BIOS Lab, Duke University, Durham NC (under guidance of Dr. Adam Wax)
- Co-author on 1 peer-reviewed publication and primary presenter for 1 conference presentation
- Developed OCT imaging to provide a cancer detection scheme based on detecting nucleus-size and hemoglobin-concentration abnormalities.
- Validated theory of measuring nuclear size by accurately sizing beads in agar phantoms
- Determined localized hemoglobin concentration by characterizing absorption spectra of hemoglobin to determine localized hemoglobin
