Overview Academic/Research Interest Areas

My research area is in image processing and computer vision. Areas related to bioinformatics include tracking of cells (red blood cells and natural killer T cells) and segmentation of a large network of vessels to analyze the microcirculation as well as the motion behavior of NKT cells with respect to tumor.
