Hui Min Leung works at the intersection of optical engineering and biomedical imaging, developing advanced light-based imaging techniques such as micro-optical coherence tomography (a high-resolution method for visualizing tissue) to study airway and lung health. A major focus is understanding how the tiny hair-like structures (cilia) and mucus in the airways function in diseases like cystic fibrosis and COVID-19. More recent work also explores structured light fields, including optical vortices carrying orbital angular momentum, for imaging and quantum computing applications.
