Aydogan ozcan biography examples

Aydogan Ozcan received his MS degree and PhD from Stanford University, USA. He is currently the Chancellor’s Professor and the Volgenau Chair for Engineering Innovation at UCLA and an HHMI Professor with the Howard Hughes Medical Institute, USA. He is also the Associate Director of the California NanoSystems Institute, USA.

Ozcan pioneered the use of computational optics for the development of significantly more cost-effective and highly sensitive imaging and sensing instruments, creating innovative mobile microscopy and diagnostics tools for use in developing countries and resource-limited environments.

He also pioneered a suite of lens-free microscopy and on-chip holography techniques that are widely used in high-throughput imaging and lab-on-a-chip applications for rapidly screening micro/nanoscale objects over orders of magnitude larger sample volumes, generating giga-pixel microscopy images using field-portable instruments.
