Natzem selected for Cancer Engineering Fellowship
Congratulations to Natzem Lima for being selected for the Cancer Engineering Fellowship supported by the UA Cancer Center! His project will focus on developing new tools for esophageal cancer screening.
Lab Receives Grant for Polarization-Sensitive OCT system
The lab was awarded a grant to acquire a new polarization-sensitive optical coherence tomography system! We’re excited to apply this new technology for cancer detection and imaging in the brain.
Students selected for photonics west presentations
Tom, Bridget, Natzem and Justina were all selected to give oral presentation’s at this year’s Photonics West! Stay tuned for links to their presentations and proceedings.
Core Facilities Pilot Program Funded
The laboratory’s proposed project “Multiphoton imaging of gastrinoma and correlation with molecular and genetic markers” was funded through the University of Arizona’s Core Facilities Pilot Program grant.
TLA Impact Challenge Award
The lab recently was awarded funding through the TLA Impact Challenge for the proposed project “Smartphone application for spectroscopic calibration, acquisition and analysis for skin cancer diagnosis.”
American Cancer Society Grant awarded
We are pleased to share that the lab recently received the American Cancer Society Institutional Research Grant titled “Development of a murine xenograft model for gastrinoma and a multispectral imaging probe for in vivo monitoring of tumor development.”
Tom awarded NIH Training Grant
Congratulations to Tom Knapp, who was selected for the Computational & Mathematical Modeling of Biological Systems training grant!
