Short presentation

Our group works in interdisciplinary field:

• we develop an in vivo experimental approach based on Raman spectroscopic  techniques to study hemoprotein properties and signaling pathways in living cell, isolated heart and brain slices
  
  
• we develop an advanced image analysis of laser speckle flowmetry to assess dynamical changes in vascular networks of kidney, retina, and brain
  
  
• we develop mechanism-based models of vascular networks

Primary fields of research

• Biophysics
• Biophotonics 
• Biosimulation
