Research Interests
David Brady's research focuses on photonic systems for sensing, data storage, and communications. He leads the DISP group (www.disp.duke.edu), which builds interferometric and coherence sensors for 3D microscopy, infrared tomography and free space communications and sensor networks. At the Fitzpatrick Center, Brady focuses on undergraduate and graduate education in photonics, with a particular emphasis on optics as an information science and optics education as a bridge between physical and digital systems.
