SPECTO  PROJECT  PAGE

HIGH-RESOLUTION  SPECTRAL  HOLOGRAMS  FOR  BIOLOGY  &  MEDICINE

Welcome to SPECTO (Spectral Tomography) project page.  Both clinical medicine and scientific research can greatly benefit from high-resolution imaging of biological specimens.  This project is increasing the imaging depth (resolution) as well as imaging complexity (e.g., spectral composition or multiple simultaneous modalities), especially for live-cell imaging.

AIMS OF SPECTO

Development of ultrasensitive high-resolution 2D, 3D and 4D imaging, atomic-resolution imaging, and analytical systems for micron-sized down to sub-nanometer atom-scale objects, including molecular clusters, crystalloids, cells, embryos, whole organs or tissue blocks, and other biological structures / substructures.  For live systems, we develop non-invasive techniques for molecular quantitation, especially if such approaches are important for clinical diagnosis or therapeutic applications (e.g., intracellular metabolite concentration measurements, or chromosomal aneuploidy detection).
