Low-coherence Biophotonics Imaging for the Brain Abstract This talk will highlight our recent efforts in exploring the brain using low-coherence light. We will discuss two scenarios: intraoperative assessment of brain cancer infiltration in patients and real-time imaging of dynamic neural activities in freely behaving rodents. In the first scenario (clinical translation), we developed a color-coded […]
Multimodal Metabolic Nanoscopy for Studying Aging and Related Diseases Abstract Understanding how metabolism functions in multicellular organisms is essential for revealing the fundamental mechanisms of numerous biological processes. Metabolism involves the creation, transformation, and breakdown of biomolecules, acting according to genetic instructions. Traditional imaging techniques like MRI, PET, fluorescence, and mass spectrometry come with limitations. […]
Toward High-Speed Light-Field Biophotonics Abstract Visualizing the diverse anatomical and functional traits within the densely packed cellular space and over large heterogeneous populations unfolds critical details of the fundamentals of living organisms. In this talk, I will present my laboratory’s recently developed advanced microscopy techniques for high-throughput extraction of molecular information in cells and tissues […]
