The Lab of Fluids and Photons at the University of San Diego

Here at the University of San Diego in the Department of Physics and Biophysics we look at a number of different soft and squishy materials (some living and some not) with a whole bunch of different optical microscopy methods.

We recently released code for differential dynamic microscopy, an image analysis method we use in several projects. For more on that, see our PyDDM documentation site.
