Devin O’Kelly received his bachelor’s degree in Biomedical Imaging and Instrumentation from the University of Texas at Austin, then receiving his Ph.D. in Biomedical and Molecular Imaging from UT Southwestern, with a supplemental focus in Computational and Systems Biology. His Ph.D. research, in the lab of Ralph Mason, focused on the application of computational methods, including constrained inversion and multispectral filtering algorithms, to improve the quality of analyses performed on multispectral optoacoustic tomography (MSOT) data, as well as modeling the dynamics of oxygen-breathing gas challenges.

During his graduate studies, Devin became a Fellow with the BioHPC, UT Southwestern’s high performance computing resource. He took the lead in containerization and virtualization projects, and joined the team as a full-time computational engineer after completing his Ph.D. Devin’s computing interests include scalable and reproducible analytical software, data visualization, physics-based imaging, and the use of extended-reality (AR/VR) devices to interface with large-scale research data.
