RESEARCH

Biological imaging has seen significant advancements in new microscopy techniques, allowing for the visualization of sub-cellular components with improved spatial and temporal resolution. Nevertheless, the interaction between biology, fluorescence microscopy and informatics brings new challenges, including big data analysis and 4D visualization.

My current research focuses on studying the cell division mechanism of cyanobacteria. This involves developing automatic tracking methods for single cells, single filaments, or cell populations, as well as multidimensional image analysis techniques using deep learning.

To achieve this, I work on image processing and data analysis across various multidisciplinary problems, including quantitative nanoscale imaging of orientational order and 3D intracellular process tracking and visualization. Additionally, I am involved in data pre-processing and data management.
