Biomedical Laser Systems and Optogenetics

The lecture is given in English.

Biomedical systems engineering is a multidisciplinary field of engineering and has a direct impact on human well-being. The aim of the lecture Biomedical Laser Systems and Optogenetics is to discuss laser-optical methods and systems for the early detection, diagnosis, therapy and rehabilitation of diseases.

Optogenetics is a combination of methods of optics and genetics. It deals with real-time how holographic laser techniques can be used to control genetically modified cells. Adaptive microscopy using deep neural networks enable 3D imaging into deep tissue layers. Furthermore, of the brain, Brillouin microscopy for contactless sensing with light for cancer diagnosis and needle-thin lensless fiber endoscopes for diagnostics and therapy gentle examinations and stimulations are covered in the lecture.

Biomedical Laser Systems and Optogenetics is part of the modules:
„Photonische Messsystemtechnik“. (V/Ü/P: 2/0/0), 9. Semester
And
"Sensoren u. Messsysteme-Vertiefung" (3/0/2), 9. Semester
And the subsidiary and application subject
COMPUTATIONAL LASER METROLOGY (INF-D-920)
