Bio-Imaging and Biophotonics is a highly interdisciplinary field that exploits the light interaction with biological organisms, tissues, cells and molecules. Those technologies are critical to understand more in detail the behavior of different living beings and for the development of new and innovative devices for healthcare and life sciences applications . The new techniques require further developments on the equipment used and on their internal components (light sources, sensors, optics…), to achieve accurate results faster, with higher resolution and/or to analyze smaller features. This meeting will discuss the state-of-the at those technologies and address the upcoming demands from their users.
Pablo Loza-Alvarez is the head of the Super Resolution Light Microscopy and Nanoscopy lab facility at ICFO. He performs research on the development and use of advanced microscopy and using novel photonics tools, has developed novel imaging techniques.
As Business Development Director at Lambda-X, Thierry is promoting optical systems engineering and OEM manufacturing services to support product development in Life Sciences, MedTech and Industry QPC markets.
Gerard Whoriskey has been with CoolLED since helping to conceive and develop the first LED Illumination Systems, and continues to work with the latest technology to develop exciting new solutions for microscopists and OEM customers.
Dr. Øystein I. Helle has 10 years of experience working with integrated photonics. His pioneer work kick-started a new field of research towards the development of super-resolution optical microscopy based on an integrated photonics platform. He is the co-founder and CTO of Chip NanoImaging AS.
Medical System Engineer. Focused on system’s integration, validation and verification tests, documentation development for medical certification and supplier management.
