Welcome to our lab
We work at the intersection of optical technology innovation and biomedical research. Utilizing the optical phenomenon known as Brillouin scattering, we design and build optical instrument to quantify the mechanical properties (i.e., viscoelasticity) of matter with diffraction-limited resolution and in a non-contact, non-invasive manner. In combination with other imaging modalities, we study biomechanics of cells, tissue, and biomaterials. Ultimately, our goal is to address crucial questions in biophysics and mechanobiology, with a focus on clinical application for combating birth defects and cancer diseases.
