Jacobs School engineers recognized as photonics Rising Stars

Two Jacobs School of Engineering affiliates were among the 13 researchers recognized by Laser Focus World’s inaugural Rising Stars Award program. Bioengineering Professor Lingyan Shi, and electrical engineering alumna Sonika Obheroi, were recognized by the magazine for their contributions to the photonics industry. 




Shi, an assistant professor of bioengineering, uses ultrafast optical imaging, including stimulated Raman scattering and multiphoton fluorescence, to look inside cells to answer biological and medical questions, and even diagnose disease. Read her
