Developed breakthrough methodologies and algorithms that are now widely used in the investigation of mechanisms of tissue organization and drug discovery approaches for reverting disease states in cancer, neurodegeneration and other applications. The multidisciplinary approach used cutting-edge techniques from quantitative imaging, single-cell technologies, machine learning and mathematical modeling.http://www.pnas.org/content/early/2008/12/03/0807038105.full.pdf

Developed target tracking and multi-hypothesis data fusion algorithms and software for situational awareness applications for the U.S. Navy and the U.S. Coast Guard. Developed sensor optimization algorithms for ballistic missile tracking applications.
