Dr. Chia-Lung Hsieh is a principal investigator at the Institute of Atomic and Molecular Science (IAMS) at Academia Sinica in Taiwan. He is also an adjunct Associate Professor of the Department of Physics at National Taiwan University. His research interest is exploring nanoscale biological dynamics with advanced microscope techniques. Specifically, his ongoing research employs an advanced scattering-based interferometric microscope technique to enable direct visualization of the swift movements of cell organelles, virus particles, and chromatin within living cells. 

The Nano-Bio-Photonics Lab at the Institute of Atomic and Molecular Sciences (IAMS), Academia Sinica, Taiwan is a multidisciplinary research team focused on developing optical microscope techniques and data analytical methods to better understand the fundamental physics and chemistry of living systems at the nanoscale. By combining molecular biology and advanced optical technology, the lab measures the spatiotemporal dynamics of individual biological nano-objects, from single viruses to molecules, in order to understand how stochastic events drive life processes. This research also contributes to the understanding of disease origins, including viral infection and neurological disorders.
