Nearly two years after the project’s kickoff meeting, the fastMOT consortium met again in Delft for their third in-person meeting. Hosted at Delft University of Technology, the partners made the most of their two days together, diving into key technical discussions and planning for the months ahead. The first[…]

Happy to announce that Laura di Sieno has been invited to Photonics West 2025 to give a presentation on “New insights for time-domain diffuse optics: instrumentation and approaches” in San Francisco on 26 January. During her presentation, she also introduced the audience to our work in the fastMOT project,[…]

While standard optical oximetry systems make use of two/more wavelengths across the isosbestic point of oxy/deoxy-hemoglobin and between 650 and 900 nm, this work explores the possibility to use only light at 1064 nm wavelength to detect the absolute oxyhemoglobin concentration in tissues using time-domain diffuse optics. Furthermore, the[…]

Happy to share that Alberto Dalla Mora had been invited to the 6th International Workshop on new Photon-Detectors (PD24), which took place in Vancouver (Canada) from 19-22 November 2024. In his talk “Towards optical radiography: photon-detectors to look inside the body using light”, he also had the opportunity to[…]

“Being able to adapt to change is crucial” In our series #WomeninScience, we will hear from the female scientific staff working on fastMOT, telling us about their roles in our project and their experiences of finding their career in science. Meet our next guest, Shrouk Eid Zaki Ahmed, PhD[…]

Now is your chance to learn more about the technicalities of our fastMOT project – in the Laserlab-Europe talk by Lisa Kobayashi from ICFO, where she explains the scientific innovations involved.

We are pleased to share that Xingmin Li of our project team represented us with a poster about simulations of Time Domain NIRS SCOS and DCS at the VIII Biennial Meeting of the Society for functional near-infrared spectroscopy (#fNIRS2024) in September.

“There is always something to learn from everyone!” In our series #WomeninScience, we will hear from the female scientific staff working on fastMOT, telling us about their roles in our project and their experiences of finding their career in science. Meet our next guest, Laura Di Sieno, associate professor[…]

It’s time to look back on our achievements and highlights after the first 12 months of the fastMOT project! In the months following our kick-off meeting in April 2023, we have already seen some encouraging early results, from promising tests and experiments to our first publications and presentations. All[…]

Last week, the fastMOT consortium held its second in-person meeting at the Institute of Photonic Sciences (ICFO) in Castelldefels, a coastal suburb of Barcelona. The gathering brought together all partners of the project to welcome new staff members, foster team cohesion, and tackle critical discussions regarding the project’s detector[…]
