Here’s some of what I saw this year at BiOS and
represents only a small fraction of what was there. I’ll put up a few more links soon. It is fascinating to see all these amazing
developments in biophotonics, biomedical optics, and imaging being made at such
a rapid pace. Thanks to all who
graciously let me point my little camera at them. Please visit their linked websites to learn
more about what is outlined here.
In the order that they appear in the video we
present:
Dipl. - Phys. Uwe Ortmann of PicoQuant returned this year from Berlin with the latest Fluorescence Lifetime Imaging (FLIM) development to capture motion in cells at 10 frames per second (FPS).

Aileen Chen of Vista Optronics Inc. came to San
Francisco from China and demonstrated a tiny endoscope (1.5mm outside diameter)
- not much larger than an acupuncture needle.
Justin Harris Ph.D. of NanoHybrids Advanced Imaging Solutions came
from Austin, Texas and explained how gold and light are used for non-invasive
cancer diagnosis and treatment.
Markus Geiser Dr. sc. ETH of IRsweep came from Zurich Switzerland and
demonstrated a new spectrometer with bandwidth of up to 150 cm-1 in the
mid-IR range of 5 µm (2000 cm-1) to 10 µm (1000cm-1).
Ben Alexander of Caliber Imaging and Diagnostics
from Lakeway, Texas demonstrated a new technology for quickly scanning and stitching
together confocal microscope images of biological samples up to 80 x 120 mm.
