Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolNi Chen is an Honorary Associate Professor and transdisciplinary computational imaging researcher with 11 years of experience advancing optics, differentiable imaging, and computational display systems. She develops end-to-end hardware–software co-designed pipelines that span rigorous theory, forward system modeling, inverse computation, and applied devices for 3D/4D capture and holographic/light-field displays. Her work extends and unifies modalities such as holography, ptychography, coherent diffraction imaging, and microscopy to push physical and computational imaging boundaries. Having held research positions across Asia and the US—including HKU, KAUST, Seoul National University, and University of Arizona—she combines international lab leadership with hands-on system building. Ni is particularly focused on uncertainty-aware, reconfigurable imaging systems and the creation of holographic optical elements for next-generation visualization. Based in Tucson, she blends optical physics and computational science to deliver practical tools that reveal previously inaccessible optical information.
