Research

My research focuses on medical robotics and imaging, data visualization, and adaptive imaging. Below, I have grouped the active projects into these domains with links to further details.

Medical Robotics and Imaging

We explore new applications of robotics in surgery and ophthalmology using image guidance, especially with optical coherence tomography.

Data Visualization

Densely-sampled volumetric datasets, like those produced with optical coherence tomography, present challenges in data visualization. We address such challenges in surgeon situational awareness and in virtual reality environments.

Adaptive Imaging

Point- and line-scan imaging modalities, such as optical coherence tomography and beamsteering ultrasound, waste effort when scanning the background of sparse scenes. We explore approaches to online adaptive scanning that increase effective imaging throughput by focusing on regions of interest, rather than the full scene.

Open-Source Software

I develop and maintain open-source software to support my research, including the projects listed below.
