Computational Microscopy with Multiple-Scattering Samples

This team will develop new computational microscopy techniques for reconstructing a sample’s 3D light scattering potential, in order to completely characterize the multiple-scattering behavior of light that passes through a sample and use it to digitally correct scattering effects. They will apply these methods in three different microscopy applications: 3D phase microscopy of thick biological samples, 3D fluorescence microscopy, and in vivo neural photo-stimulation. The team will design these methods to be adapted to many microscopy systems.
