Mentor Areas
June and Steve Wolfson Laboratory for Clinical and Biomedical Optics is dedicated to developing new optical technology to probe blood flow and oxygen metabolism in human tissues. Using these devices we hope to continuously improve how we care for critically ill children. I am a neurologist for children, specializing in vascular neurology. My clinical practice informs my lab interests. Students in the lab will be exposed to both basic science and clinical care.
Description:
June and Steve Wolfson Laboratory for Clinical and Biomedical Optics is dedicated to improving how we manage children with critical illnesses. We engage in device development and validation, as well as translation to clinical care. The Lab is composed of clinicians (neurology, critical care, anesthesia) and scientists (engineers and physicists) and we interact with diverse experts in their fields.
Preferred Qualifications
We require an eagerness to learn and a curiosity to explore. Further we require good people skills and maturity in interacting in a multidisciplinary team. Engineering background is a plus, but not required.
