Research

My research focuses on the development of the scanning FCS technique. This research requires the development of analytic expressions as well as analysis tools in order to properly interpret the data. I have been focusing on using the technique to study systems where flow and diffusion are both present. I am also interested in exploring the use of scanning FCS as a tool for examining systems in which particles have been immobilized. The overall goal is to use scanning FCS to quantify protein dynamics within the cellular environment.
