Research Interests
- Quantitative assessment viral vector infectivity (lentivirus, pseudovirus, adenovirus) dynamics and heterogeneity using cell based assays and live cell imaging
- Viral vector reference material development and characterization
- Measurement of proliferative and cytotoxic heterogeneity in chimeric antigen receptor T (CAR-T) cells using single cell, live cell imaging and machine learning models.
- Quantitative phase imaging (QPI) reference materials to enable reproducible and comparable QPI measurements between different experiments and laboratories
