About

Matthew A. Kupinski is a Professor at The University of Arizona with appointments in the College of Optical Sciences, the Department of Medical Imaging, and the program in Applied Mathematics. He performs theoretical research in the field of image science. His recent research emphasis is on quantifying the quality of multimodality and adaptive medical imaging systems using objective, task-based measures of image quality. He has a BS in physics from Trinity University in San Antonio, Texas, and received his PhD in 2000 from the University of Chicago. He is the recipient of the 2007 Mark Tetalman Award given out by the Society of Nuclear Medicine and is a member of the OSA and SPIE. Contact him at College of Optical Sciences, The University of Arizona, 1630 E. University Blvd. Tucson, Arizona 85721; mkupinski@optics.arizona.edu
