We bid a fond farewell to Chelsea Pittman, who most recently was the surgery specialist in our lab. Chelsea joined the lab in 2012 as an undergraduate student researcher who worked closely with Sean White (then a graduate student, now a postdoctoral scholar in the lab) on in-vivo microscopy focused on study of the body’s reaction to engineered tissue implants. Chelsea is a co-author on one paper (White et al., Tissue Engineering Part A, http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/24593148), and she provided critical to several ongoing projects currently funded by the National Institutes of Health and American Society for Laser Medicine and Surgery. We are sad to see her leave, but we are excited for her as she moves on to continued education in the Nursing Studies program at Drexel University. Good luck Chelsea!

Paper accepted for publication in Optics Letters
Caitlin Regan, a PhD student in the MTI lab, is first author on “Photothermal Laser Speckle Imaging”, a paper that was accepted on 7 Jul 2014 for publication in Optics Letters. The work was in collaboration with Dr. Julio Ramirez-San-Juan, our outstanding colleague and former MTI lab member, who is at Instituto Nacional de Astrofísica, Óptica y Electrónica (INAOE) in Puebla, Mexico. This is Caitlin’s first (of many) peer-reviewed publications as first author. Congratulations Caitlin!
