”Laser Biomedical Research CenterRecent advances in imaging and spectroscopy techniques for biology and medicine

Peter So,PhD

Professor of Mechanical and Biological Engineering, Massachusetts Institute of Technology

Director, Laser Biomedical Research Center, NIH NIBIB Research Resource

Research-at-a-glance: 

Standing-Wave Total Internal Reflection Microscopy (SW-TIRM)
Single molecule dynamics
Cellular mechanics and mechanotransduction
Intracellular transport and trafficking

Biography: 

Prof. So holds a Bachelor’s degree in Physics and Mathematics from Harvey Mudd College and completed his PhD in Physics at Princeton University. He continued his postdoctoral research at the Laboratory for Fluorescence Dynamics at University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. Peter So joined MIT as Assistant Professor at the Department of Mechanical Engineering in 1996. Since 2000 he has also served as Associate Director of the Whitehead-MIT Bioimaging center.

Research: 

Many advances in biology and medicine are driven by the availability of new diagnostic tools. Our research focuses on the engineering of novel microscopy instrumentation and the application of these new tools to study biomedical problems. The problems tackled in my laboratory range from understanding the structure/function of single proteins, nature’s smallest machines, to the devolpment of a new non-invasive optical method for cancer diagnosis. The available research topics in my laboratory can be categorized into molecular, cellular and tissue levels:
