Kevin Eliceiri is an American scientist specializing in biological image analysis. He is the principle investigator of the Eliceiri Labm also known as the Laboratory for Optical and Computational Instrumentation (LOCI) at the University of Wisconsin Madison, the Director of UW-Madison's Center for Quantitive Cell Imaging, and Director of the Morgridge Institute's FabLab, a facility dedicated to prototyping tools with biomedical applications.

Education & Early Career

Eliceiri received his Bachelors (Bacteriology), Masters (Microbiology), and PhD (Bioimage Informatics) from the University of Wisconsin, Madison, training under the guidance of Professor John White on the role of calmodulin signaling during cytokinesis[1]. Early in his career, he served as an information processing consultant for UW-Madison's integrated Microscopy Resource Center, eventually becoming a project manager for the Laboratory for Optical and Computational Instrumentation, the lab which he now directs[2].

Research and Career

Eliceiri has been conducting research on computational and optical approaches to live cell imaging for over two decades, with a focus on multidimensional fluorescence approaches for cell studies and image informatics tools for image analysis. His laboratory has taken on leadership of the open-source image analysis platform ImageJ/FIJI and the open source acquisition software MicroManager[3].

LOCI's mission is to develop new optical and computational instrumentation for live cell imaging. In particular, the lab is developing new approaches for dynamic cell imaging in vivo including Multiphoton Laser Scanning Microscopy (MPLSM), Second Harmonic Generation (SHG), FRET and fluorescence lifetime imaging (FLIM) approaches. A major focus of his research is to develop and apply non- invasive optical and computational approaches for understanding the role of the cellular microenvironment in normal and diseased processes[3]. Of particular interest is the development and use of advancing imaging and image analysis approaches to study cell-cell, cell-matrix and endothelial-stromal interactions and metabolism.

Eliceiri is also deeply invested in several community building efforts, serving as PI and co-chair of Bioimaging North America (BINA), a network for sharing microscopy expertise[4]. His lab also supports the microscopy and bioimage analysis resource image.sc, a help desk and community forum for the bioimaging community[5].
