Dry-mass profiling of live cells with quantitative phase imaging applied to personalized treatment of cancer

● Application of coherence-controlled holographic microscopy and other quantitative phase imaging methods for measurements of dynamic dry-mass distributions in live cancer cells in tissue culture

● Quantitative evaluation of statistically significant changes in cellular responses to chemotherapeutic drugs using dynamic morphometric parameters derived by image processing

The project will include developments in microscopy, image processing, data analysis and tissue culture.
