Bartlomiej Kowalski
Software Dvlpr 3, Ophthalmology Research/Clinical Trials
BioI am a senior software engineer in the Dubra Lab at The Byers Eye Institute, where I work on developing novel ophthalmic imaging instrumentation for improving the understanding, diagnosing and management of eye disease.
My interest in computer science started early in life and led me to obtain master’s degree at Czestochowa University of Technology (Poland). After graduating, I contributed to the advancing of spectral domain optical coherence tomography (OCT) and pioneering of swept-source OCT for retinal imaging as part of Canon Ophthalmic Technologies (Poland). This work resulted in two commercially successful instruments, the Xephilio OCT-A1 and the Xephilio OCT-S1, which are sold worldwide.
My current work focuses on innovations that allow the translation of Adaptive Optics Ophthalmoscopy from a research tool into a mature technology that improves eye care. -
Karteek Kunala
Research Engineer, Ophthalmology Research/Clinical Trials
BioMy current interests are in development of design and instrumentation of pre-clinical vision devices, to conduct non-invasive in vivo retinal imaging. I studied Physics with a concentration in optics during my time at University of Hyderabad, India and received a bachelors and masters degree in 2014. I then moved to USA to continue working in the field of optics at University of North Carolina at Charlotte to pursue my PhD, working on nanofabrication of broadband anti-reflective structures. My interest in vision science started with my job at University of Rochester as a research scientist, where I was involved in developing optical imaging tools using adaptive optics to study retinal diseases. My work was focused on development of fluorescence lifetime imaging techniques in humans and two photon fluorescence microscopy in mouse.
