Stimulated emission depletion microscopy surpasses diffraction-limited microscopy by offering much more information about structures. Combining STED with time-tagged data acquisition methods makes...
Collaboration Advances Intraoperative Assessment of Tumor Margins
Physicians, companies come together to address clinical translation issues. It’s a long-standing truth: For the biophotonics community to meet the needs and constraints of the medical field and...
EDITORIAL
Celebrating Light and Life
Once again, we find ourselves on the threshold of a new year – and what a year it will be for the photonics industry and biophotonic technologies! The International Year of Light kicks off in January with festive opening ceremonies in Paris, but the calendar started filling some time ago. You can see the list of exciting events to be held around the world at the official website,...
BIOSCAN
Interferometric Technique Targets Protein Shadows
A new optical method for targeting proteins could mean earlier diagnosis and more effective treatment for cancer.

A new optogenetics technique could help map neural networks in living organisms.
Fluorescence Technique Probes Muscular Dystrophy
Scientists are gaining new insight into muscular dystrophy using a form of high-resolution fluorescence microscopy.
New Fluorescence Marker Enhances Bio-Imaging
A new line of red-shifted fluorescent tissue markers may enhance deep-tissue imaging.
In Vivo Raman Technique Quickly Pinpoints Cholesterol
A new high-speed spectroscopy technique has helped pinpoint where cells store cholesterol, and could be used to study obesity and diabetes. Researchers at Purdue University used hyperspectral...
Chemical Treatment Makes 3-D Cell Cultures Clearer
A chemical treatment could lead to better imaging of cells in 3-D cultures. A team at Brown University made the finding while studying how neural tissues grow from stem cells. The researchers created...
Handheld Scanner Roots Out Brain Tumor Traces
A new Raman laser scanner could help surgeons more effectively remove cancerous brain tumors.
SERS Advances Noninvasive Prostate Cancer Screening
SERS spectroscopy could provide a noninvasive way to screen for prostate cancer. A team from Guangdong Medical College used SERS, as well as a spectral data processing algorithm called support vector...
Optogenetics Swaps Memory Emotions
It may be possible to change negative memories into positive ones, and vice versa, using optogenetics techniques.
Raman Whispering Gallery Detects Nanoparticles
A Raman microlaser sensor can detect and count individual particles — including viruses — as small as 10 nm. Researchers led by Dr. Lan Yang of Washington University achieved Raman lasing...
Doppler OCT Measures Cocaine’s Impact on Brain
A variant of optical coherence tomography has provided the first images of blood flow disruption in the brain caused by cocaine use.
RAPIDSCAN
Phase Holographic Imaging Collaborates With Northeastern
A collaboration agreement between Phase Holographic Imaging (PHI) of Lund, Sweden, and Northeastern University of Boston has been announced. PHI will provide Northeastern with HoloMonitor technology...

Taking Cues From The Sea
When man copies nature, it tends to be a smart move. Using nature’s design and strategy to solve human problems can allow us to bypass a lot of experimentation. One of the earliest instances of biomimicry may be Leonardo da Vinci’s sketches for a “flying machine” that mimics the wings of a bat. And architects have used the design of an egg – nature’s strongest,...
