Abstract :
I will discuss my group´s recent work on rethinking microscopy from the ground up. I will report on a self-imaging petri dish technology (ePetri) which is capable of streaming microscopy-level live cell culture images directly out of the incubator. I will also discuss our recent work on Fourier Ptychographic Microscopy which enables a standard microscope to push past its physical optical limitations to provide gigapixel imaging ability and to outperform the best available high-performance optical microscope.
