A memorial symposium in the honor of the late Gabriel Popescu and the first annual Center for Label-free and Multiscale Biophotonics (CLIMB) Research Symposium will be held at the Beckman Institute for Advanced Science and Technology on April 13-14.

Great first day CLIMB @BeckmanInst

Interested in learning about biophotonics from experts in the field, gaining hands-on laboratory experience, and meeting other early career researchers? We are accepting applications for our Biophotonics summer school, which will be held from May 30 to June 9, 2023 in Urbana, IL.

Five days until summer school!

Some go skydiving or spelunking to see the edge of life and death, others write their research proposal in the last hour & submit their fellowship application 2 mins before the portal closes... Who is to say who truly experiences the exhilaration of being alive? #AcademicChatter

How can label-free #Microscopy capture neuronal metabolism changes driven by their electrical activity? Check out my poster at #SfN2023 on Monday 8 AM to noon to know more! #SfN

Thesis defended! Yayyy! So grateful for such awesome support from everyone!!! :D #PhD

CLIMB center has candy, tote bags, postcards, stickers, and awesome people to talk to about label-free imaging and our summer schools at SPIE Photonics West. Check us out at booth 8673! #SPIE #PhotonicsWest

Yayy! Happy to finish my last SPIE Photonics West as a student member quite successfully! Thanks to the awesome people at Biophotonics Imaging Laboratory, the chairs, and sponsors!

Check out my paper on a new method for multichannel fast fluorescence lifetime imaging microscopy with explicit clock registration out on BOE from my work at Biophotonics Imaging Laboratory! #Optics #Microscopy #OSA_BOEx opg.optica.org/boe/fulltext.c…

Our paper on a new method for hyperspectral coherent Raman microscopy, led by Lilian Yang, called TOSS-HS-CARS, is out on Optics Express! Using a pulse shaper, TOSS has adaptive imaging configurations and fast tuning!Yay! doi.org/10.1364/OE.517… #microscopy #optics #publication

My paper at Biophotonics Imaging Laboratory on using "wrong" AR coatings for a two-color three-contrast full-field optical coherence microscope is out in #SPIE_JBO. I am elated that I can be a small part of the special issue honoring Prof. Gabi Popescu! doi.org/10.1117/1.JBO.… SPIE#Optics

My colorful VAMPIRE image, "Biological Rhapsody: ...", won third place in the Grad College Illinois 2024 Image of Research! I'm so happy! Thanks to fellow VAMPIREs, @janet_sorrells and Lingxiao Yang, and the folks at Biophotonics Imaging Laboratory. #microscopy #Illini #optics grad.illinois.edu/news/congratul…

So honored to be a 2024 Schmidt Science Fellows! This is an exciting opportunity for me to jump headfirst into a new field and I want to thank my advisor, Prof. Steve Boppart, folks at Biophotonics Imaging Laboratory, Illinois ECE & Grad College Illinois for supporting me through this process! #ExcitingTimes

Last week, BIL had the pleasure of celebrating one of our recent PhD graduates. Congratulations again to Dr. Iyer Rishyashring Iyer for all he has accomplished!

Culture, community, ambition, risk, failure, and perseverance. Inclusion, perspective, and reflection...no punting...but pasta, and how to change the world. That's a wrap on the first Science Leadership Program for our 2024 Fellows.Thanks to all who made it special. Safe travels.
