RESEARCH INTERESTS

Over my career, my research has evolved from laser cooling and low-temperature atomic gases, such as Bose-Einstein Condensates, to nanophotonics, such as tip-enhanced fluorescence microscopy, to superresolution hyperspectral imaging, to science education. Most of my current scholarly activities are related to education-reform projects and education research.
