Near Infrared Fluorescence and Photoacoustic Imaging Facility

点击翻译按钮获取中文摘要

This grant will establish a multi-institutional near infrared fluorescence and ultrasound photoacoustic imaging facility. The Facility will accelerate the development, characterisation and evaluation of new and emerging nanomaterials for a diverse range of applications, utilising fluorescent and photoacoustic imaging systems. Nanotechnologies including optical nanosensors, novel nanomaterials with tuneable quantum yields, and multi- modal imaging agents will enable discovery investigations of bio-nano interactions and bio-distribution interactions of nanomaterials in rodent models. The Facility will provide significant community benefits through the development of highly innovative bioimaging, biosensing and drug delivery tools.
