Research in the Tissue Optics Lab is an interdisciplinary effort. Students from biomedical engineering, electrical engineering, optical engineering, and optical sciences currently work in the lab building new imaging devices, testing new applications, and performing signal and image analysis. Research assistant positions are available for excellent students with experience and interest in optics, analog electronics design, and signal and image processing. Laboratory rotations, research credits, and independent study are available for students meeting the above criteria as well as those interested in tissue engineering, physiology, and biochemistry.
Similar opportunities are also available for medical school students.
