Bob Chung holds a first degree in Medical Engineering and a PhD in Mechanical Engineering from University of Hong Kong (HKU), bringing 10 years of biophotonics research experience. His overall research focuses on ultrafast single-cell imaging using laser time-stretch technology, which enables the reconstruction of both brightfield and quantitative phase images of flowing cells without requiring sample staining. To complement high-speed imaging flow cytometry, Bob is currently developing a microfluidic cell-sorting mechanism designed to match the high throughput and accuracy of the imaging system.
