Biography

I received Ph.D. degree from the Medical Engineering and Medical Physics (MEMP) program at the Harvard-MIT division of Health Sciences and Technology (HST). I completed my technical concentration in the department of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science and clinical coursework at Harvard Medical School. I worked on computational imaging through optical multimode fiber (MMF) under Professor Brett Bouma and Professor Martin Villiger in the Wellman Center for Photomedicine. Specifically, my goal is to develop MMF endoscopy for biomedical applications, where the endoscopes offer microscopic resolution in an ultrasmall footprint, enabling the visualization of otherwise difficult to access structures. Before my Ph.D. study, I completed my bachelors degree in Electrical Engineering and master degree in Optoelectronics at National Taiwan University, where I had research experience in two-photon fluorescence and photoacoustic microscopy.

From my research experience, I build hard skills in the design and implementation of optical imaging systems such as endoscopes and microscopes. I have worked on computational image reconstruction, which involves inversion techniques and optimization problems. I also have experience with wave-front shaping techniques, solid state lasers, optical amplitude modulation, and image analysis and processing.
