Research Interests<\/h3>\n

My primary interest is in the study of optical methodology, biomedical optics, which is applicable to the biological and medical uses, and in the study of the physics on the biomedical optics. In particular, I am interested in the time-resolved spectroscopy and the correlation spectroscopy from the single-molecule level to the individual tissue level of small animals or human. I am currently focused on the tissue optics in a near-infrared region over 1 \u03bcm wavelength to obtain new information such as the water and structure of tissues. Since this region is essentially free or negligible from the heme absorption, this region could be used for a new optical window of the tissue, where the structure and dynamics are directly monitored. Further, the quantitative measurements of the extrinsic probe signals, such as fluorescence and scattering, are possible. I am expecting that this near-infrared wavelength region is key of yielding the detail information of complex hierarchical biological system.<\/p>\n
