Summary
👤
SeniorJanaka Ranasinghesagara is an Associate Specialist and biomedical engineering researcher at UC Irvine’s Beckman Laser Institute with 14 years of experience modeling light–tissue interactions. He develops computational tools—including a Qt/C++ Virtual Microscopy Simulator—and applies electromagnetic theory and Monte Carlo methods to analyze focused beam propagation and nonlinear microscopy signal generation in scattering media. His work spans wide-field optical scattering, photoacoustic microscopy, and multiphoton modalities, and he contributes to the Computational Biophotonics short course and peer-reviewed tutorials on modeling nonlinear optical microscopy. Colleagues describe him as a pragmatic computational physicist who bridges rigorous theory with practical simulator development to probe complex biological specimens.
