Alex got his PhD from the biology department at Northeastern University in March 2021. His research was focused on the use of multiplexed in situ hybridization techniques (HCR FISH) in the investigation of gene expression during limb regeneration in axolotl salamanders. Post graduation he worked in at the Chemical Imaging of Living Systems (CILS) core facility at Northeastern where he was the application specialist for the microscope core and the equipment manager for the flow cytometry facility. Alex has extensive experience in light microscopy methodologies and techniques such as confocal, lighsheet, multi photon, super resolution, and image and data analysis for these various modalities.

Alex specializes in lightsheet microscopy, and mRNA imaging through FISH. He also is the staff member in charge of the cryo tissue processing equipment.
