Venue:   邵逸夫科技馆一楼报告厅
Abstract: Biophotonics is a rich and diverse field. In this talk, I will focus on in vivo optical imaging, where photons are used to image microscopic structure and function in vivo, while allowing noninvasive monitoring of oxygenation in a clinical setting. I will give an overview of a wide range of the approaches currently being applied to in-vivo optical imaging, such as two-photon microscopy, optical coherence tomography, multispectral optical imaging, fluorescence imaging,diffusive optical tomography, and photoacoustic tomorgraphy. I will also discuss some examples of current applications from my own research to cutting-edge neuroscience research.
About the speaker: Ms. Peifang Tian obtained her B.Sc. and M.Sc. degrees in Physical Electronics from Tsinghua University, Beijing in 1993 and 1995, respectively, and her Ph.D. degree from Princeton University, NJ, in 2003. She worked as an Optical Engineer/Physicist in the Applied Optics Laboratory of General Electric Global Research Center, Niskayuna, NY from 2003 to 2005. She was an Assistant Project Scientist in the Department of Neurosciences, University of California, San Diego, La Jolla, CA, in 2005-2009. Since 2009, as an Assistant Professor, she has been with the Department of Physics, John Carroll University, University Heights, OH. Her current research in biophotonics includes, but not limited to, studying light propagation inside highly scattering biological tissues using computer modeling; developing optical methods to better image biological tissues or live animals; and applying advanced optical imaging tools to study the function of living brain.
