Biophotonics Laboratory: Optics in the Service of Biomedicine

One of the laboratories involved in the activities of the Optical Society is the Biophotonics Laboratory, which focuses on optical spectroscopy and advanced microscopy techniques used in the biological sciences and bioanalytical technologies.

This interdisciplinary research combines material science, optical nanostructures, nanophotonics, and micro- and nanofluidics with the goal of developing innovative methods for biomolecular analysis, disease diagnostics, and environmental monitoring.

Also noteworthy is the SEnDISo project, which aims to develop a new generation of detectors and chemo-biosensing solutions. These technologies enable, for example, air pollution monitoring, early detection of biomarkers for serious diseases, and improvements in radiotherapy.

The Biophotonics Laboratory brings together an international team of scientists with expertise in physics, materials research, and biotechnology. By combining fundamental and applied research, the lab pushes the boundaries of optical technologies and contributes to the advancement of modern biomedicine.
