About
Our team works at the nexus of advanced imaging and biological physics. We achieve this by applying and inventing new optical techniques to precisely quantify the fundamental functions of biological systems.
Our current research focuses on understanding the different biofluidic properties in the extracellular domain that promote long-range cell-cell communications. We accomplish this by leveraging our multiscale, label-free imaging tools. Our research informs us of the subtle range of diverse combinations of biofluidic forces that complement biochemical signals in promoting multicellularity. The outcomes of our research aim to benefit tissue and biomaterial engineering, as well as the invention of new imaging technologies—now being commercialized by Ability Optics Pty Ltd.
