We will set up hands-on optics activities for middle and high school students.

Eitan's imaging effort is starting to pay off.

Thanks Jovy!

Thanks Tom, Amritha, Joe and Tony.

Eitan's imaging effort is getting interesting

12 year olds find light stuff very cool.  And we did not have to pop any balloon...

Thanks Jovy !

The Pride of Ruvo di Puglia !!!

Tom will build force sensors for cell mechanics.

After 8 years of uncontested leadership in Brillouin signal strength....Today Jitao finally surpassed me.

Congrats Jitao!

Thanks Jitao !

Steal of 2015 draft...

Our paper shows for the first time a focal weakening in keratoconic corneas

In collaboration with Malte Gather (St. Andrews, Scotland) and Kristian Franze (Cambridge, UK), we are going to combine force and elasticity mapping to study neuronal growth

We are going to try and understand the biomechanics of  why people gets presbyopia

We are going to use Brillouin microscopy to map cell elasticity !

The second paper out of the Marcos Lab- Yun Lab collaboration was just published in the Journal of the Royal Society of Interface. In it, Sabine Kling modeled OCT vibrography for corneal biomechanics assessment. 

In collaboration with Prof. Nam Ki Lee and Prof. Yoon Ho Kim of Postech in Korea, we received funding to explore the correlation properties of chaotic light sources to possibly improve resolution and imaging depth penetration in biological tissue.

Our ex vivo results on the biomechanical characterization of Keratoconus are now published in IOVS!
