Chemical imaging for Biomedicine

Abstract

I will present two chemical imaging strategies to address two existing fundamental challenges in optical bio-imaging. First, we devised a Bioorthogonal Chemical Imaging platform suited for probing the dynamics of small bio-molecules. Second, we developed a super-multiplex vibrational imaging method, coupling the narrow Raman linewidth with sensitivity boost from resonance enhancement. It is capable of resolving up to 24 colors simultaneously.
