Funded Activity Summary

Enhanced micro-Raman and Fluorescence spectroscopy and imaging facility for biosystems and materials. The state-of-the-art spectroscopic and fluorescence imaging equipment will provide cutting-edge capabilities for fundamental and applied research with the potential to impact on improved health outcomes, pharmaceutics, biotechnology and nanomaterials research. Chemical probes based on molecular vibrations and fluorescence will allow changes in biomolecular composition within cells and tissues to be mapped/imaged down to nanometre spatial resolution. This will provide new techniques for the diagnosis of diseases, e.g. cancer, the rapid identification of pathogens, the understanding and design of new drugs, and a range of biotechnology, nanomaterials and nanotechnology applications.
