We are a multidisciplinary team of scientists and engineers working to advance tissue optical imaging and spectroscopic technologies to the frontline of clinical practice. We develop optical imaging tools—like fluorescence lifetime imaging and Raman spectroscopy—for label-free, real-time tissue diagnostics. Focusing on gastrointestinal health, our lab bridges engineering and medicine to improve the detection of colorectal inflammation and cancer.

The Advanced Materials Characterization and Testing (AMCaT) Laboratory is a multidisciplinary facility located in Kemper Hall that supports a wide variety of materials characterization tools for hard and soft materials. Access to the AMCaT laboratory is based on hourly recharge fees that vary depending on the equipment or service. Our professional staff is also available for consultations and design assistance for projects being carried out in the laboratory. These services can be used by both UC Davis researchers and off-site customers. 

Our mission is to advance agricultural safety and health through applied research and Extension activities focused on engineering solutions for injury prevention and the protection of farmers. We address critical issues in agricultural incidents by collaborating with researchers across the U.S. and with global partners from several countries. With funding from state and federal agencies and partnerships with multiple research centers, our work emphasizes practical innovations that enhance safety and well-being for those in the agricultural sector.
