Our work revolves around using engineering to tackle real-world healthcare challenges. We're developing new imaging technologies—like photoacoustic computed tomography, ultrafast ultrasound imaging, and multimodal imaging systems—that help us see inside the brain and body in ways that weren’t possible before. These tools let us visualize tissues and organs more deeply, faster, and with greater detail.

​

We're really excited about how these innovations can be applied to areas like brain imaging and modulation, cardiovascular health monitoring, and breast cancer screening and diagnosis. Our aim is not only to develop these technologies but also to bring them from the lab to the clinic, where they can make a real difference in patient care.
