Biomedical Optics Workshop
Tuesday, March 16, 23, 30, April 6, 13, 2010, 7:00-9:30 PM
Located at Boston University Photonics Center, 8 Saint Mary's Street, Boston, MA, USA
The exponential growth of Biomedical Optics in the last decade, resulting from the application of maturing technologies in optical imaging, integrated optics, fiber optics, lasers, detectors, and nano-technology to the medical field, requires practicing professionals to become knowledgeable about a whole new generation of opto-electronic medical equipment. Due to the efforts of innovative researchers, a wide variety of advanced optical techniques have been developed (diffused optical imaging, multi-photon microscopy, optical tomography) for clinical monitoring of diseases in vivo and ex vivo, and pathogen detection. These techniques are becoming essential in Genomics, Proteomics, Biomedical diagnostics, and therapeutics to mention a few. To learn about these amazing new optical technologies, attend this local Biomedical Optics Workshop to discover the latest advancements at the cutting edge of optical biomedical research from ten of the foremost researchers in these emerging fields.
