Forskningsområder

We develop hardware for capturing fast dynamics inside complex biomimetics (artificial tissues) and for high-throughput characterization of biological samples. Our goal is to bring about new screening tools for early-stage clinical diagnostics and for pre-clinical research/development. We are motivated equally by these end-goals and by the prospect of enabling unexpected discoveries, unravelling the biological machinery that underpins life and disease.

While our goals are broad, we stick to well-defined research challenges. Currently, our main focus is to develop optical instrumentation for large volume screening and high (‘super-‘) resolution imaging of structurally complex organ-on-chip systems - a technology, which can (down the road) advance our fundamental understanding of biological life, inform decision-making in personalized medicine, and fast-track the development of pharmaceutical treatments without animal testing.
