  • I am a first year PhD student in Biomedical Engineering at Columbia University. I am doing research in Laboratory for Functional Optical Imaging, mentored by Dr. Elizabeth Hillman.
  • My research involves using different optical imaging tools (e.g. optical intrinsic signal imaging, two-photon microscopy) to study neurovascular coupling, which may help to explain the physiological foundation of fMRI BOLD signal, and lead insights to various neurodegenerative diseases (e.g. Alzheimer's).
