OSSC Annual Business Meeting, Fellows Induction, and Talk by Eric Potma (UCI)
Registration is closed
Registration cancellations will be accepted until Wednesday, June 08, 2016 at 9:00 PM
Annual Business Meeting, Election Results, Fellows Induction, and Presentation on:
Nonlinear Optics to the Rescue
Abstract: Wouldn’t it be great if we could peek into our own tissue and generate images of our cells at high resolution and in a completely noninvasive manner? Such a capability would certainly transform our diagnostic abilities of detecting disease at a very early stage. None of the current biomedical imaging techniques is capable of producing full body images at cellular resolution, however, some nonlinear optical imaging techniques do a pretty good job at visualizing superficial tissues. Imaging techniques like two-photon excited fluorescence, second-harmonic generation and coherent Raman scattering have recently been used with great success in clinical settings. They detect and map cells in the body in real-time, without any labels and in a noninvasive way. In this talk, we will discuss some of these new optical imaging approaches, explain how they work and what we may expect from them in years to come.
