This comes with an ACS Research Scholar Grant for 2014-2017 to fund chemotherapy monitoring research with DOS and SFDI. see sections entitled: “Personalized Cancer Treatment Takes Shape” http://www.cancer.org/research/acsresearchupdates/more/exploring-all-avenues-to-stop-cancer
The Summer Term Alumni Research Scholars (STARS) Program is an undergraduate program that engages students in faculty-mentored full-time research experiences throughout the summer.
Lauren was named a Semifinalist based on the work she conducted during summer 2013 in the BOTLab as part of the BU Research internship in Science and Engineering (RISE) program. https://student.societyforscience.org/intel-sts-2014-semifinalists
Sanjana was awarded a BU Undergraduate Research opportunity Program (UROP) fellowship for Spring 2014.
Justin was awarded a BU Undergraduate Research opportunity Program (UROP) fellowship for Fall 2013.

Our 2013 ECE senior design group is building us a digital DOS system, here is a video they made for the project! https://vimeo.com/80378652
Raeef took new measurements with a much lower noise preamp made by the Boston University Electronics Design Facility (EDF). Below is a drift measurement (60 repeated measurements every minute for 1 hour) with an 850nm laser diode, taken from 50-500MHz on an optical phantom with a 3mm APD. Also shown are noise floor measurements for all 6 laser diodes.
