Abstract

Photonics has revolutionized the life sciences by providing powerful, non-invasive tools for observing, measuring, and manipulating biological systems with exceptional precision and sensitivity. Imaging techniques such as optical microscopy, fluorescence imaging or optical coherence tomography enable researchers and clinicians to study cells, tissues, and molecular interactions in real time and in their natural environments. And spectroscopy of biological samples enables the non-invasive investigation of molecular composition, structure, and dynamics within cells, tissues, and biofluids. These technologies are essential for early disease diagnosis, drug development, neuroscience, genomics, and personalized medicine.
