Current Research and Scholarly InterestsLaser spectroscopy and microscopy of single molecules to probe biological systems, one biomolecule at a time. Primary thrusts: fluorescence microscopy far beyond the optical diffraction limit (PALM/STORM/STED), methods for 3D optical microscopy in cells, and trapping of single biomolecules in solution for extended study. We explore protein localization patterns in bacteria, structures of amyloid aggregates in cells, signaling proteins in the primary cilium, and dynamics of DNA and RNA.

BioI am a researcher with a PhD in Mathematics working at the intersection of mathematical modeling, machine learning, and medical data analysis. My research focuses on developing interpretable, stable, and mathematically grounded models for complex biomedical data.
My background includes work on large-scale biomedical datasets, including cancer and brain imaging data, where I focused on two core foundations of model design: (i) regularization, to improve stability, reduce overfitting, and incorporate the intrinsic structure of the data; and (ii) convex optimization, to ensure well-behaved optimization landscapes with globally optimal and computationally tractable solutions.
Currently, I apply mathematical modeling and machine learning methods to the analysis of functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) data. -
