معرفی
Lan Ly, PhD, is an Adjunct Assistant Professor in the Department of Microbial Pathogenesis & Immunology at the Texas A&M University School of Medicine. She also serves as Project Director at FUJIFILM Diosynth Biotechnologies Texas, LLC. Her research focuses on integrating quantum optics, nanotechnology, and biomedical engineering to advance diagnostic tools and understand microbial pathogenesis. Ly holds a BS from the University of California, San Diego (2000), a PhD from Texas A&M University (2004), and completed postdoctoral training at the Texas A&M College of Medicine (2010).
Her work spans quantum-enhanced sensing techniques for viral detection, Raman spectroscopy applications in fungal and cellular analysis, and photonics-based imaging systems. Ly’s interdisciplinary approach bridges quantum physics with medical diagnostics, particularly in developing non-invasive imaging modalities and novel biomaterials. Her recent studies include optimizing plasmonic nanoantennas for quantum sensing and exploring magneto-optical effects in nanomaterials for biomedical applications.
Ly’s research also extends to agricultural biotechnology, such as non-destructive plant root phenotyping and drought tolerance assessment via Raman spectroscopy. Her contributions to quantum theory applications in biology and entangled photon-based spectroscopy highlight her commitment to advancing both fundamental science and translational medicine.
