PROFESSIONAL EXPERIENCE:
Undergraduate Research Assistant October 2011 — present
Micro and Nano-scale Bio-manipulation and Imaging and Sensing Laboratory, UT Austin
Supervisor (PI): Professor John X.J. Zhang
Commercial level silicon Micro-Electro-Mechanical System (MEMS) micromirror based compact desktop confocal reflectance microscope
Used SolidWorks to design and package a commercial level silicon micromirror based laser scanning confocal reflectance microscope and aided in the development of the imaging software programmed in MATLAB.
-Stainless steel MEMS scanner based hand-held hyperspectral imaging for skin cancer detection
Helped design a miniaturized handheld confocal imaging probe for oral cancer detection in SolidWorks. Developed a Java and LabVIEW based software kit for real-time medical image processing algorithms.
-Non-silicon MEMS micromirror based handheld hyperspectral fluorescence imaging for epithelial cancer detection
Aided in the design, simulation, fabrication, and implementation of stainless steel and nickel MEMS micromirrors for use in fluorescence imaging.
-Polarized spatial frequency domain imaging (pSFDI) system for dynamic imaging and characterization of heart valve tissue
Developed the LabVIEW software to integrate various optical and biomechanical equipment to create a fully automated imaging system. Also helped design and assemble the optical-mechanical system for the functional spectral imaging.
