About this position

Structured light for full 3D vectorial control of the focal field — and the first true 3D readout of molecular organisation in tissue. During this project you will lead the design, build and programming an optical microscope that does something no existing instrument can: Shape the full 3D vector of a light field at the focus of an objective lens and use it to read out how biomolecules are organised in three dimensions. The microscopy technique you will begin working on is polarisation-resolved second-harmonic generation (pSHG): a fast, label-free nonlinear technique that is the gold standard
