Education-PhD, Optical Sciences, University of Arizona, 2006 MS, Optical Sciences, University of Arizona, 2003 BS, Physics, Michigan Technological University, 1999 Research Intrest-Biophotonics Microscopy Spectroscopy Optical design and instrumentation Computational simulation and Monte Carlo ray tracing Theoretical models of light scattering in tissue Development of optical techniques and instruments enable quantitative measurement of cells and tissue at length scales ranging from nanometers to centimeters. For many applications, optical methods provide unique advantages for minimizing cost and complexity of sample preparation, making these methods suitable for clinical and in vivo use. Applications include cancer risk screening by detecting field carcinogenesis using Enhanced Backscattering Spectroscopy, quantification of nanoscale ultrastructural changes within cells using spectral microscopy, and investigation of eye disease using endogenous fluorescence spectroscopy.
