    Imaging and computing with disorder

    Complex and inhomogeneous media are ubiquitous around us. Snow, fog, biological tissues and turbid water — even just a piece of frosted glass — are opaque to light due to scattering. Similarly, radio waves bou...

    Mean path length invariance in wave-scattering beyond the diffusive regime

    Diffusive random walks feature the surprising property that the average length of all possible random trajectories that enter and exit a finite domain is determined solely by the domain boundary. Changes in th...

    Readout of fluorescence functional signals through highly scattering tissue

    Fluorescence is a powerful means to probe information processing in the mammalian brain1. However, neuronal tissues are highly heterogeneous and thus opaque to light. A wide set of non-invasive or invasive techni...
