Lester Wolfe Workshop in Laser Biomedicine

“Biosensor Photonics”
Biomedical optics and photonics is increasingly being utilized in the field of biosensors, with the ability to probe, analyze and quantify important biomolecules and biological processes. The 2014 fall Lester Wolfe Workshop will examine applications of carbon nanomaterials, Forster resonance energy transfer in microscopy, and cover two examples of the growing trend to use the ubiquitous smartphone as a diagnostic device.
