I am an optical imaging scientist with experience in optical engineering, neuroimaging, and neuropathology (Google Scholar profile). I am currently a Research Fellow at the Laboratory for Computational Neuroimaging (LCN) and the Optics Division at the Athinoula A. Martinos Center for Biomedical Imaging. 
+ Expertise spanning from ex vivo, in vitro to in vivo optical imaging via confocal microscopy, multiphoton microscopy, optical coherence tomography
+ Expertise in digital image processing and mathematical modeling.

    cjliu10 Want to understand the whole story? Read the beautiful paper. My friend Ghaidan Shamsan (not on Twitter) led other components. Spoiler alert, we have a lot of data! It took us a while to put it together. I am very excited to finally present this work to the Twitterverse! (4/4)

    cjliu10 More interestingly, I further found the same migration phenotypes in HUMAN PRO and MES GBM cells from @MayoClinic in brain slices. We further used modeling, transcriptomics, and quantitative histo to understand the difference in migration, immune responses, and survival. (3/4) t.co/v3KrJtCI7F

    cjliu10 For your long weekend reading, I highlight my major contribution. We developed a live tumor imaging protocol for spontaneous mouse GBM. We were interested in GBM cell migration and found the different migration phenotypes in mesenchymal-like and proneural-like mouse GBM. (2/4) t.co/oLWpTNgCgq
