“New advances in coherent Raman imaging spectroscopy for exact thermometry applications”
European Symposium on Ultrafast Laser driven Biophotonics
September 15 – 18, 2024 | Jena, Germany
3rd European Symposium
on Ultrafast Laser driven Biophotonics
The 3rd ESULaB took place from Sept 15-18, 2024 and was a great success with more than 190 registrations from 20 countries, 25 invited talks, 26 posters and 7 industry partners.
Thanks to all those involved who made the symposium a success: to the outstanding speakers, the generous support of the sponsors and the participants for the exciting discussions and professional exchange.
For the third time, the European Symposium on Ultrafast Laser-driven Biophotonics (ESULaB) will create an important platform for professional exchange between scientists from different fields, including physicists, chemists, engineers, material scientists, biologists, biomedical scientists and industry representatives. Taking place this September in Jena, Germany, this event promises to provide participants with up-to-date insights into trends and future perspectives that will inspire their own research.
The focus is on the latest advances and developments in the field of spectroscopy and imaging, which are realized through the use of ultrashort laser pulses and contribute to solving biophotonic problems. The broad range of topics includes nonlinear imaging techniques such as SHG/THG microscopy and coherent Raman microscopy for medical diagnostics, high-resolution imaging of biological structures using nonlinear phenomena (e.g. STED microscopy), as well as the use of wavelengths in the EUV/X-Ray range and ultrafast time-resolved spectroscopy for the study of biological systems, including the dynamics of protein folding using 2D spectroscopy. At the same time, the translation of new diagnostic and biomedical approaches to market introduction and practical application is a key issue.
You can look forward to more than 20 lectures by outstanding scientists in the field of nonlinear biophotonics, who will present their research. An industry forum as a central part of the conference will again provide plenty of space for professional exchange of views, stimulating discussions and networking. Users will be presented with the latest technical innovations in the fields of infrared, Raman and terahertz spectroscopy as well as X-ray and EUV microscopy.

Conference Greetings
While maintaining quality throughput and complexity of research work have steadily increased over the last years. If it comes to experimental setup and lab infrastructure research results have been boosted by applying new combinations of available hard and software technologies. A good example is the use of DMD (Digital Micro mirror Device) as a spatial light modulator in microscopy. These DMDs had already been used for many years in display and astronomy applications. Therefore in this conference we would like to bring together scientists from different disciplines to share their experience on emerging technologies and setups. What is common is the use of Ultrafast lasers in Biophotonics.
The relatively new research area of biophotonics combines life sciences, environmental sciences and medicine with innovative optical technologies. Biophotonics encompasses all optical methods for investigating structural, functional, mechanical, biological and chemical properties of biological materials and systems. Biophotonics opens up great opportunities for basic research, biotechnology and medicine. With the help of biophotonics, it is possible, for example, to better understand the causes of diseases so that they can be prevented in the future or at least diagnosed earlier and more precisely and thus treated more effectively.
In more than 20 scientific lectures by pioneers in their field this conference report on the manifold new possibilities that arise in biophotonics with ultra-short pulse lasers. The spectrum of topics includes non-linear imaging (e. g. SHG/THG microscopy, coherent Raman microscopy) for biomedical diagnostics, imaging of biological objects with highest spatial resolution by exploiting non-linear phenomena as well as wavelengths in the EUV/X-ray range and ultra-short time spectroscopy of biological systems e. g. protein folding dynamics using 2D spectroscopy to name only a few.
We hope to meet you at the conference!
