Sai Siva Gorthi's Biography

Sai Siva Gorthi, Assistant Professor, Indian Institute of Science

Sai Siva Gorthi is working as an Assistant Professor in the Department of Instrumentation and Applied Physics at Indian Institute of Science (IISc), Bangalore. Prior to joining IISc, he was a post-doctoral fellow of Rowland Institute at Harvard University, where he had developed multiple imaging modalities for recording information of fast flowing cells in microfluidic devices. He obtained his doctorate in Optical Metrology from EPFL (Swiss Federal Institute of Technology), Lausanne, Switzerland in 2010. His PhD thesis “Spatial fringe analysis methods and their application to holographic interferometry and fringe projection techniques” stood among the best eight theses of EPFL. Currently at IISc, part of his group is focusing on the development of various point-of-care diagnostic devices with the combination of optics, microfluidics and electronics. His research interests include Imaging Flow Cytometry, Microscopy, Microfluidics and Droplet-microfluidics Instrumentation, 3-D Imaging of Cells, Lab-on-a-Chip, Fringe Analysis, Interferometry, Non-destructive Testing, and Applied Signal Processing. He has published 27 papers in peer-reviewed international journals in these areas
