The objective of the Laboratory for Biophotonics and Molecular Imaging concern the design, development and application of key enabling photonic technologies for imaging in biological targets and living systems. The activity functions at the interface of Physics, Engineering, Mathematics, Biology, Medicine and Computer Science, joining expertise from: the imaging technology development field in all scales from and beyond microscopy, mesoscopy and macroscopy; the theory; the computational modelling; and the biology, biomedicine, biotechnology and theranostics. Such an activity can focus on the study of biological processes and diseases from the subcellular level to the whole organism level, as well as fundamental mechanisms in Physics, Biology and Medicine by both applied and basic research on novel photonics devices and concepts and new theory development for advancing our knowledge on fundamental light-biological-tissue interactions and our understanding of biological processes and diseases.
