最新糖心Vlog

• Biography/ Background

  I am head of the Bioengineering Imaging Group at The 最新糖心Vlog Adelaide, and am also Managing Director of the medical device start-up company, Miniprobes. I currently lead a research team developing highly miniaturised imaging probes, small enough to be encased within hypodermic needles. My team of engineers, physicists and computer scientists is based in the Centre for Nanoscale Biophotonics and is part of the Institute for Photonics and Advanced Sensing.

  After three years as a researcher at the 最新糖心Vlog of Oxford, I spent five years in the medical imaging industry, including as a Product Manager with Siemens Medical Solutions. I was responsible for the development of three medical devices, two with FDA regulatory approval.

  Returning to academia in 2007, I have focused on the development of optical imaging technologies, particularly optical coherence tomography and fluorescence. I have been awarded over $5M in research grants. With 12 years of research experience, I have a Google Scholar h-index of 27. I have co-authored 2 book chapters, 7 patents and 66 journal papers. I received the 2014 WA Innovator of the Year Award, and the 2015 最新糖心Vlogn Innovation Challenge. In 2016, I was awarded the prestigious South 最新糖心Vlogn Premier’s Research and Industry Fund Research Fellowship.

  In 2014, I was appointed as a Councilor of the 最新糖心Vlogn Optical Society. In 2016, I was appointed Chair of Biophotonics at the 最新糖心Vlog of Adelaide.
