This is a graduate-level course about why real optical images never look as sharp as theory predicts, and what you can do to fix that — turbulence, tissue, and lens aberrations all distort the wavefront, and adaptive optics is the toolkit for measuring and correcting those distortions in hardware or in post-processing. You will work through Fourier optics from the ground up (diffraction, PSFs, transfer functions) before getting into wavefront sensing, phase conjugation, and the transmission-matrix approach used in modern biomedical imaging. Most of the grade comes from a single project, so expect to pick a topic, read recent literature, and present your own analysis rather than grind problem sets.
