Summary
Label-free biomedical optical imaging (LBI) is a technology used to study tissues by measuring interactions between tissue and light. This CAREER project will link biological activity to the signals detected by LBI. The goal is to determine how biological changes, such as changes in how genes are expressed, affect the way light interacts with tissue. The research will create new artificial intelligence (AI) methods to map the relationship between gene activity and LBI. The results could lead to better tools for diagnosing disease, studying tissue health, and improving pathology. In addition,
