Research summary

Gregory Eakins works on developing and applying advanced imaging and spectroscopy tools, including techniques that combine light and sound (photoacoustic-ultrasound imaging) and specialized laser-based methods (stimulated Raman and transient absorption spectroscopy) to study biological and material samples. Example applications include imaging fatty plaque buildup inside coronary arteries and detecting defects in graphene, a thin carbon material. This work sits at the intersection of chemistry, physics, and biomedical engineering, using instrumentation to visualize structures and chemical processes in real time.

Publication output peaked in 2017 and has since slowed to a lower, somewhat irregular pace of a few papers per year, with a gap in 2021.
