Identifying DNA repair deficiencies across lung cancer progression

This project investigates how metastatic lung cancer develops and evolves over time. DNA sequencing can be utilised to identify patterns in cancer genomes associated with specific sources of mutation (eg: UV rays, tobacco smoke, intrinsic cellular processes). Additionally, cancers may acquire defects in DNA repair mechanisms, resulting in a positive feedback loop of increasing mutation […]

Complex Microscopy

The proposed project is to combine digital holographic microscopy (DHM) and interferometric scattering microscopy (iSCAT), which can be separated into two sub-tasks. The first one is introducing reconstruction holographic algorithm to iSCAT image analysis, realizing real-time particle 3D tracking. Tracking objects along the optical axis in iSCAT is commonly done by comparing the shape of […]
