I invent new light-based technologies for in vivo imaging and sensing of the brain and eye. Our group develops and applies these technologies both to understand fundamental disease processes in experimental models and to detect these changes earlier in humans.  Right now, we are advancing visible light Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) for imaging the retina and interferometric diffuse optics (iDO) for imaging and monitoring the brain. Our group puts theory into action by actively collaborating with clinicians and other scientists to address pressing needs in the diagnosis of disease in the eye (age-related macular degeneration) and brain (Alzheimer's disease, traumatic brain injury).
