Research Interests

Dr. Klemer's research interests are based on an interdisciplinary background in engineering and medicine, with past research activities including optical imaging at near-infrared wavelengths, microelectronic device/circuit fabrication based on Si and III-V compounds, and inverse scattering. His interests include the broad application of biomedical imaging systems, biophotonics and biomedical instrumentation to explorations of human pathophysiology, disease diagnosis and management, and physiologic monitoring in critical care environments. Dr. Klemer completed a residency in Internal Medicine at NYU Medical Center/Bellevue Hospital in New York City, and is board certified by the American Board of Internal Medicine.
