Translational alliance in biophotonics for cytometry

点击翻译按钮获取中文摘要

This project will establish a long term relationship between research translational centres - the Centre for Nanohealth at Swansea University and the Fraunhofer Centre for Applied Photonics in Glasgow. This translational alliance will provide a commercialisation pipeline for photonics research concepts and devices applied to healthcare delivery. The strategic alliance will link to the significant portfolios of industrial partners currently held by the two translational centres and in doing so boost interactions between the optics business cluster in Scotland and the medical sector company base in Wales. The project will also take basic research outputs relating to a micro-laser system cytometer to a fully validated commercial prototype system. This will have application in cell based diagnostics such as blood cell counts.
