Welcome to Antonia Diaz from Univesidad de los Andes, in Santiago, Chile. She will be with us for the rest of the spring, working on her senior theis in digital staining.
Conference: Sean and Eric presented their work at Photonics West in San Francisco in mid--January. Thanks to Ali G for organizing our annual dinner, this time a Persian family-style feast at Meykadeh. Our old venue, Ristorante Milano, has closed after many years. This year we were joined by Prof. José Delpiano of Universidad de los Andes and some members of his team as we strengthen our ongoing collaboration.
Welcome and Welcome Back: As the spring semester begins Anna Regan from Draper Labs joins us as a MS student. With the change of co-op terms, our undergraduate team now consists of Jason and Emma working on structured illumination, Heewon working on imaging monomer orientation, Tyler doing FDTD for I-CRM fibrils, and Josh, and Bella working on snapshot interferometric imaging of fibrils with an LED source.
Congratulations: Our former undergraduate David Hunter, currently at Dartmouth, has been accepted to the Geisel School of Medicine.
Congratulations: Another undergraduate, Giles Blaney, currently a postdoc at Tufts, having finished his Ph.D. there, has received a NIH K99 award to do research in pulse oximetry.
Welcome
Welcome to the Optical Science Laboratory (OSL) at Northeastern University. Led by Associate Professor and author of Optics for Engineers, Charles DiMarzio, the OSL is one of the laboratories affiliated with the department of Electrical and Computer Engineering, the department of Mechanical and Industrial Engineering, the department of Bioengineering, and the Gordon Center for Subsurface Sensing and Imaging Systems, at Northeastern University. The OSL is particularly interested in those imaging techniques that involve optics, especially coherent detection, multi-modal and multi-spectral imaging.
Our equipment includes the W.M.Keck 3-D fusion microscope combining brightfield, phase, DIC, confocal, multi-photon, and harmonic microscopy on a single platform.
Our applications include mostly biological and medical imaging, with specific interests in imaging collagen monomers and fibrils, dermatology, structured illumination, speckle contrast, and the interaction of light and sound.
Our approach to imaging includes computational modeling, instrument development, and image processing, guided by an understanding of the fundamentals of propagation and detection of light.
OSL's goals are to provide a facility for advanced research in these areas in order to address the needs of our research sponsors, and to train the next generation of researchers for industry, academia, and the government.
