other conferences on sensing and imaging.
His research interests are mathematical and
technical innovations in biomedical imaging and image processing, with x-ray
computed tomography, optical molecular tomography and multi-modality biomedical
imaging as the main focus. He has supervised doctoral and mentored
post-doctoral research in the reconstruction and system development for x-ray and
optical tomography techniques. He has been the
PI/MPI/Co-PI of multiple large-scale projects funded by the
National Science Foundation of China, Ministry
of Science and Technology of China, Ministry of Education of China, and Sino-German
Center.
