Faculty By Research Group

Computational Biomedical Imaging Group

The computational biomedical imaging group (CBIG) pursues research on the development of new algorithms for the reconstruction and post-processing of medical and biological images. Active research areas include image reconstruction, image analysis and quantification. More info...

Motor Physiology Group

The Motor Physiology Group at the University of Rochester is an association of faculty spanning several Departments who share a scientific interest: Elucidation of the neural computations leading to coordinated action. More info...

Multi-Sensory Integration Group

The Multi-Sensory Integration Group at the University of Rochester includes faculty, students, and laboratories that are bound by a common interest in how the different senses interact in areas of common meaning (e.g. space, communication) to yield purposeful behavior. More info...

Nanomembrane Research Group

The Nanomembrane Research Group (NRG) is a collection of students, senior scientists, faculty, and entrepreneurs who all work on the development and application of porous nanocrystalline silicon (pnc-Si). The pnc-Si material is a molecularly thin, nanoporous membrane capable supporting more than an atmosphere of pressure without failure. The membranes are mass produced on silicon wafers in a variety of form factors at low cost. The thinness, strength, pore size characteristics, and economics of pnc-Si membranes are enabling a variety new devices in microfluidics, precision biomolecule separation, and cell culture.

Neuro-Engineering Group

The combination of quantitative method, the physical sciences, and the biological sciences has provided remarkable contributions to our understanding of biomedical phenomena, including pathologic processes and interventional strategies to correct them. More info...

Vascular Biophysics Research Group

The Vascular Biophysics Group is centered around a program project grant from NIH entitled, Vascular Relations of Blood Cells and Protein. The focus of the group is the physical mechanisms underlying physiological processes in the microvasculature. Interests include the regulation of blood flow and cell survival in the vasculature, leukocyte-endothelial interactions in flow, mechanisms of vascular cell adhesion, leukocyte motility on endothelial surfaces and regulation of endothelial permeability.
