Research Focus
Dr. Gareth Eaton's lab at the University of Denver focuses on pioneering imaging techniques that measure the role of free radicals in cancer and other diseases using electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR). Their innovative projects include developing a portable EPR tumor imager, which aims to enhance our understanding of tumor environments and improve therapies for various conditions such as lung damage and injuries. This research incorporates advanced technology to make complex imaging more accessible for broad biomedical use.
