Research summary
AI-generated

Gil A. Gonzalez develops and applies advanced optical microscopy methods, especially nonlinear and Raman-based imaging techniques, to visualize chemical composition inside living cells without adding dyes or stains. Recent work focuses on how cancer cells alter their lipid metabolism and internal skeletal structure (microtubule network) under low-oxygen (hypoxic) conditions, using techniques like stimulated Raman scattering and coherent anti-Stokes Raman scattering microscopy. This research combines instrument development (e.g., laser pulse-picking methods) with biological applications in cancer cell biology.

Publication output rose sharply starting in 2021, peaked in 2022, and has since gradually declined through 2025-2026, though the group remains active.
