Medical Devices
Assistant Professor (starting Fall 2026), Department of Biomedical Engineering
The Cannon Lab develops innovative optical imaging techniques to capture how disruptions in central and peripheral nervous system dynamics drive disorder and disease throughout the body. Brain-body communication is critical for coordinating local function in specific organs with multi-system demands, but the scope, versatility, and transient nature of these interactions make them difficult to characterize. By engineering new tools for optical imaging…
