    Research interests

    My research interests is in developing and building optical microscopes. My current project mainly focuses on building light-sheet imaging systems for rapid 3D imaging of live samples, and utilize them for different bio-applications. I also have experience in simulation of optical systems, software development for microscope operation, and theoretical optics.
