Research Interests
- Development of imaging modalities for plants and disease diagnosis/treatment
I hold the Fedoruk Research Chair in Nuclear Imaging Technologies. My research focuses on development/implementation of novel detector technologies and imaging modalities, applications of radiation in the diagnosis and treatment of diseases.
A more recent and very exciting addition to my research program is the development of nuclear imaging detectors dedicated to plant imaging, which will be used to study plants at a molecular level to improve the understanding of plant productivity; nutrient and water use efficiency; plant microbe interactions; and their responses to environmental stress and injury. For more information please inquire directly.
Laboratory
The Nuclear Imaging and Detector Development Laboratory (NIDDL) is located at LB 116. The lab is fully equipped to develop imaging technologies such as PET and SPECT.
