Office: SECW 2210A Phone: 312-355-0838
Participating in the Chancellor’s Undergraduate Research Awards program: Yes
Research Interest:
We develop multiscale fluorescence imaging techniques for studying molecular interactions from the nanoscale to the mesoscale, with a special emphasis on understanding human immunity. The multidisciplinary imaging research combines single-molecule and super-resolution microscopy, multimodal imaging, nanotechnology, antibody chemistry, computational modeling, and T cell biology. Minimum time commitment in hours per week: 10 Qualifications of a Student:
Background in any of the following areas is desirable: - Microbiology and molecular biology - Engineering - Biochemistry and biophysics - Bioimaging and microscopy Brief Summary of what is expected from the student:
Students are expected to work under the supervision of a graduate mentor, keep a lab notebook, attend weekly group meetings, and report research to the PI. Contact researcher via URE Email Webform
