Overview
Context of Advancing optics and electronics of endoscopy and endomicroscopy at University of Dundee
Throughout the history of microscopy, the endeavour has been to see smaller and smaller features. The key challenge in biology has been to observe this in vivo as this provides a dynamic view into living phenomena. An even bigger challenge to observe cellular and sub-cellular events as-they-happen in a living human body.
The technology for human in vivo cell imaging at sub-micron resolutions inside patients is not available. The student helped by the supervisory team will break this deadlock from technical perspective opening new opportunities for follow-up clinical studies.
