Welcome to Frontiers in Imaging, Spectroscopy and Theranostic (FIST) Lab

Interests

Our team works on developing novel systems for improved sensing, diagnosis, and therapeutic approaches, targeted towards biological and medical theranostics. FIST lab aims to achieve non-invasive investigation of physiological and molecular processes in tissues at unprecedented depth to resolution ratio. These systems will be developed to diagnose/understand life-threatening diseases like atherosclerosis, cancer and infectious diseases. The FIST lab will also focus on developing real-time computational methods in different scientific areas like non-destructive testing (NDT), and medical imaging.
