Welcome to Amy Castillo a second-year student in ECE with a minor in BioE. She will be using Heewon's code to extract information from some of our monomer images.
Welcome to Siddharth (Sid) Muralidaran a second-year student in EE. He will be processing some recent images of collagen fibrils.
Welcome to Nick Gagnon a senior in EE. He will be working with the digital mirror device for structured illumination.
Farewell to Antonia Diaz as she returns home to Santiago and UAndes to finish her senior thesis and graduate. On 3-4 September, she presented her work at AC3E Journada Tecnica 2026 at Universidad Tecnica Federico Santa Maria, in Valparaiso. We enjoyed having her at Northeastern since February, and wish her well.
Congratulations: Muhammad Elarbi has begun a position at Apple, in camera technology.
Publication: Eric has a new paper in Biomedical Optics Express, https://opg.optica.org/viewmedia.cfm?uri=boe-17-6-2865&seq=0, on his work in Interferometric Confocal Reflectance Microscopy.
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.
