Indiana University Bloomington is a great community.

00:11

There's a lot of things to do for everyone,

00:13

making Bloomington a great opportunity to raise a family.

00:17

At IU, I share most of my time between teaching and doing research.

00:22

My research is highly cross-disciplinary.

00:25

In my lab, we develop new optical technology

00:28

to enable new investigation in the biological research field.

00:32

We constantly step out of our comfort research zone

00:35

to identify new needs.

00:36

This is a great learning opportunity to everyone working in my lab.

00:40

So when I'm not doing that, I enjoy doing gardening and eating dinner with my family.

00:43

So if you are looking for a place to go

00:46

that is supportive, where you have the opportunity to grow as a scholar,

00:50

and where you are valued as an individual,

00:52

IU is the way to go.
