GROUP OF EXCELLENCE IN APPLIED RESEARCH - GEAR
Surpassing the human capability of vision by aiding it with high-tech sensors, biological contrast enhancement and computer processing offers immense innovation potential. Our aim is to advance innovative imaging technologies like e.g. fluorescence lifetime imaging and single-domain antibodies (sdAb) tracers, and their practical applications in life sciences, healthcare, medical research and beyond.
