Profile
<p align="justify">Amir is a physicist passionate about developing cutting-edge super-resolution microscopes. His research focuses on counting individual molecules on T-cells, particularly through high-resolution oblique plane microscopy. Prior to his doctoral studies at the University of Leeds, Amir gained extensive experience in super-resolution microscopy at international research institutes, including EMBL (Heidelberg) and ICFO (Barcelona). As a sole international recipient of the EPSRC DTP Studentship from the Bragg Centre, Amir is keen to apply his microscopy expertise to expand his understanding of biology and bioimaging.</p>
