I am a finishing-year Ph.D. candidate in Applied Physics at Rice University, advised by Prof. Jacob Robinson and Prof. Ashok Veeraraghavan. My research focuses on developing a miniaturized lensless fluorescence microscope for neural imaging in mice, at the intersection of computational imaging and neuroengineering. I have a strong background in the simulation, design and fabrication of diffractive optical elements, optical table system, and fluorescence microscopy. I also use and have general understanding of methods used to solve inverse problems in computational imaging.Besides work and study, I am also enthusiastic about Violin (ABRSM Grade 8 equivalent), audiophile, PC building & games (MMORPG, Metroidvania, FPS).

Doctoral StudentRice University Aug 2018 - PresentAdvisors: Prof. Jacob Robinson, Prof. Ashok VeeraraghavanDevelop a lens-less fluorescence microscope (Mini-FlatScope) with the capability of imaging neural activities in small rodents with near-cellular (15 microns) resolution, whole cortex (8x8 mm) field of view, and small form factor (3.8 grams) with minimal restraint to animal behavior, decoupling the fundamental trade-off among those 3 criteria for lens-based microscopes.

Undergraduate Research InternPurdue University Jul 2017 - Sep 2017West Lafayette, Indiana, United StatesQuantum Matter and Devices Lab | Advisor: Prof. Yong P. ChenFor better study of rubidium Bose-Einstein condensate (BEC) in the lab, I improved the power output of an existing laser system by replacing its laser diode, then re-aligned the laser into a massive optical system and observed the BEC, a cloud of atoms trapped and cooled by the laser.
