Research projects
The AOG is home to about fifteen academics, research staff and postgraduate students working on a range of projects. Most of our work is currently being focused on the field of Optical Coherence Tomography, including work on the applications of OCT, the development of swept-sources and adaptive optics. Please see the OCT page for details of our current and past endeavours in this field.
