​Ph.D.
Spectroscopist
Assistant Professor
My research interests are centered on using the knowledge about inherent chemical composition of biomaterials to predict their behavior and function in terms of diseases. More specifically I look at cells, tissues and bio-fluids in a biomedical setting to improve existing diagnostic methods for cancer detection using chemical imaging in the form of vibrational spectroscopy, i.e. infrared (IR) and Raman imaging. 
By combining spectroscopy, imaging and advanced machine learning approaches we develop novel modalities, which integrate structural and chemical information to provide a comprehensive view from molecule to tissue level as is shown on the diagram. The spectral markers not only allow recognition of cell types within tissues but also create a route to precise pathology detection and grading exceeding human capabilities. The acquired wealth of information will allow personalized medicine, where from a single patient’s biopsy the recurrence, metastasis or chemo-resistance risk will be estimated. Application of novel mid-infrared source will enable high throughput, large scale studies to be translated to the clinic. An easy access point to the clinic lays in serum screening, which holds great potential for early detection of multiple cancers from a single sample. Finally, new biomarkers will be developed using cell cultures, tissue mimics and other model systems, which will allow to broaden the spectrum of clinically-relevant applications of chemical imaging.

Spectroscopy Cover

Recent advances in instrumentation have enabled new forms of vibrational chemical imaging, including discrete-frequency infrared (DFIR) microscopy and stimulated Raman scattering (SRS) microscopy. These technologies may represent a fundamental shift in how we approach spectroscopic imaging: Rather than collecting full spectra that contain redundant information, measuring a few important spectral frequencies may enable significant gains in speed, throughput, signal-to-noise ratio, and image quality.​
