He was later employed through the Department of Environmental Health & Safety as a health physics technician. After a few departmental changes, Coe was eventually given a full-time position under Dr. Darryl Bornhop in the Department of Chemistry and Dr. Robert Coffey in the Department of Surgery. Current research interests include the testing of near-infrared molecular imaging agents for in vivo tumor detection, development of effective mouse tumor models, multi-modality comparison of diagnostic imaging techniques for multi-stage tumor detection, therapeutic intervention of colorectal carcinoma, and investigation of diffusion among distinct cancer cell phases via MRI. Outside of work, interests include strength training, physics & mathematics, nutrition, world politics, and martial arts. |
