Students with interests in biomedical imaging and quantum optics should also get in touch!
OUR GROUP EXPLOITS ADVANCED LASER TECHNOLOGIES TO OPTICALLY DECIPHER THE RULES OF LIFE.
In the imaging and sensing platforms that we develop, we particularly leverage laser structuring techniques to generate tailored optical beams designed to map dynamic evolution of bio-function across living cells and tissues. We are especially interested in mapping metabolic activity, inflammatory pathways, and micro-rheological changes in pathalogical systems.
The optical technologies powering our research include:
Space-time laser structuring for enhanced optical penetration through scattering media
Label-free Optical Coherence Tomograph (OCT) imaging; Cell phenotyping based on intracellular dynamics
Programmable light sheets
Ultrafast lasers for multi-photon imaging
Quantum optical systems based on SPDC
Indiana University Bloomington is R1 institution. The IU School of Informatics was founded in 2000, which was renamed to Luddy School of Informatics, Computing, and Engineering in 2019. The school established the Department of Intelligent Systems Engineering (ISE) in 2016, launching the first engineering program in IU’s history. Today, ISE reports a 14:1 undergraduate student–faculty ratio and 25 dedicated faculty members.
