Roel Djajadiningrat has joined the lab of Jeroen Kalkman for his MSc project on “Beating diffraction in optical projection tomography for high-resolution imaging of zebrafish”. He will work on applying Bessel beams for high resolution optical tomographic imaging.

On February 16, 2018 Joor Arkesteijn successfully defended his PhD thesis on “Application of Sophisticated Models to Conventional Diffusion-Weighted MRI Data”

Mathijs Garming joined ImPhys as a PhD student, working under the supervision of Jacob Hoogenboom. Mathijs will work on ultrafast photon-pump electron-probe microscopy and its application for the investigation of excited state carrier diffusion in 2D and other nanomaterials.

If photonics is to meet the needs of a new generation of applications, problems will need to be addressed through better design and modelling. The EU-funded ADOPSYS project approached this challenge as much with a skills-based answer, as a technical one.

In the recently published book Beelden zonder weerga (‘Unparalleled Images’), biochemist Ton van Helvoort and Dirk van Delft, director of Rijksmuseum Boerhaave in Leiden, describe the invention and development of the electron microscope.

Teun Huijben has joined the lab of Daan Brinks for his internship as part of the Nanobiology program. He will work on the creation of a multimodal two-photon microscope, suitable for voltage imaging.

Greta Szabo has joined the lab of Daan Brinks from TU Berlin for her Master thesis project. She will work on the investigation of the photocycle dynamics of proteins, relevant for optogenetic applications, with temporally structured illumination.

Wouter Kessels started his BSc project on "Differentiating lipomatous tumors using a physics and radiomics approach". His supervisors are Frans Vos (TUD) and Martijn Starmans (EMC).

Tuanke de Beun started his BSc project on "Time-lapse OCT imaging of dynamic processes”. His supervisor is Jeroen Kalkman.
