We have an immediate full scholarship Ph.D. in the areas of light microscopy, label-free imaging, and neural imaging at The Chinese University of Hong Kong (CUHK) with joint training at Nanyang Technological University (NTU). The admitted student will be enrolled in August 2023 in the Department of Biomedical Engineering at CUHK. The student will conduct research at both CUHK and NTU. A four-year full scholarship will be provided to the admitted student with a monthly stipend of >HK$ 18,000 as well as medical insurance. Inquiries and applications should be sent to Prof. Renjie Zhou at rjzhou@cuhk.edu.hk and Prof. Tong Ling at tong.ling@ntu.edu.sg by May 5, 2023. CUHK supervisor: Prof. Renjie Zhou https://www.lambcuhk.org/ Department of Biomedical Engineering, CUHK NTU supervisor: Prof. Tong Ling https://www.tonglinglab.com/ School of Chemistry, Chemical Engineering and Biotechnology, NTU Planned Arrangement for Joint Supervision of the PhD Student: The student participating in this project will undergo extensive training in optics and machine learning and will focus on validating and improving our new high-speed 3D tomographic imaging technology for visualizing the 3D deformations of neurons during action potentials. The 4-year PhD study of the student consists of three stages: Stage I: In the first two years, the student will complete coursework in the Biomedical Engineering Department at CUHK and focus on designing and validating the tomographic imaging system for neuroimaging purposes. During this period, the student is also expected to spend around 3-6 months in the host collaborator’s lab at NTU in Singapore, preferable during the summer term; Stage II: Starting from the third year, the student will travel to the host lab at NTU for one year, where he will work with the host lab to construct the same setup and conduct imaging experiments on primary neurons in vitro; and Stage III: In the last year, the student will return to CUHK to finish up the PhD research work and prepare for the PhD defense. The expected deliverables of this project are threefold: (1) As sensitivity is the key to imaging the cellular deformation accompanying the action potential, we expect that this project will result in a deeper understanding of the benefits of machine learning for enhancing the imaging system’s sensitivity, which can be concluded in the form of several journal publications; (2) 3D visualization of neuronal deformation during the action potential can offer new insights regarding the electromechanical coupling in neurons. Such experimental observation, which has never been done before, can have broad interest from the general audience, and has the potential to be published in high-impact journals; and (3) The extremely sensitive 3D imaging system built in this project can be used for other studies in label-free biomedical imaging or material testing. PI at CUHK: Renjie Zhou has been recently promoted to an Associate Professor (with tenure) in the Department of Biomedical Engineering at CUHK, where he directs the Laser Metrology and Biomedicine Laboratory (LAMB). Prof. Zhou received his PhD degree in Electrical and Computer Engineering from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign in 2014 and undertook postdoctoral training at MIT between 2014-2017. His research interest is in developing optical precision instruments for various research and industrial applications. He has published over 100 journal and conference papers and filed over 10 US and China patents with several licensed to industry, including his own startup that received the Rising Star Award at MIT Technology Review China in Life Science Start-up Competition. He has been involved in organizing > 20 international conferences as co-chairs/committee members, delivered >40 conference invited talks and seminars/colloquiums, and reviewed for >30 international journals. He is currently serving on the editorial boards of JOSA A, IEEE Photonics Technology Letters, and International Journal of Extreme Manufacturing. He is a Senior Member of Optica and SPIE and a regular member of IEEE. He received the Croucher Innovation Awards in 2019. LAMB lab introduction: The lab has a team of >16 researchers of mainly postdocs and graduate students with disciplines in optics, physics, biology, and computer science. The lab is focused on developing cutting-edge optical imaging technologies, including quantitative phase microscopy, super-resolution microscopy, deep-learning assisted microscopy, optical diffraction tomography, and their applications in biology, medicine, and material testing.

Before that, he was a postdoctoral fellow at Stanford University. He received his Ph.D. in 2016 and B.Eng. in 2011 from the College of Optical Science and Engineering, Zhejiang University. Specialized in interferometric imaging techniques, he developed high-precision imaging systems for biomedical imaging, optical metrology, and applied physics, which have been concluded in many papers published in leading journals, including PNAS, Science Advances, Light: Science & Applications, and Optics Letters. He invented the randomly encoded hybrid grating for versatile quadriwave lateral shearing interferometry, which was nominated for 2015 China’s Top 10 Optical Breakthroughs by the Chinese Journal of Lasers. He also received the Wang Daheng Optics Award from the Chinese Optical Society, the top award for young researchers in optics and photonics in China. Recently, his research in full-field interferometric imaging of action potentials demonstrated a new approach to functional neuroimaging using optical phase signals, opening the door to all-optical non-fluorescent techniques for functional imaging in the retina and the brain.
