The primary goal of my research is to develop new optical techniques that are able to probe cellular dynamics at the 10 nm scale and to apply these techniques to answer biological and biophysical questions. Specifically, I am interested in fluorescence super-resolution techniques, single particle tracking, and hyperspectral microscopy. I am a member of the UNM Cancer Center and the director of the "Super-Resolution Technology Core" for the The New Mexico Spatiotemporal Modeling Center (STMC). The STMC is one of the nation's 10 NIH funded centers for systems biology.

News

I'm happy to announce that I have received an NSF CAREER award for my proposal: "CAREER: A computational and analytical approach to single-molecule fluorescence imaging for the quantitative analysis of protein interactions in living cells." This 5 year project will integrate research and education through the development and application of new single-molecule fluorescence techniques.

NVIDIA Selects UNM Computing as a CUDA Research Center. The selection follows the receipt of a National Science Foundation grant to buy a GPU based supercomptuer. We are looking forward to using the new super-computer in our research.
