Announcing the 2024 Meggers Award winner for the paper entitled "Quantitative analysis of tissue by Raman microscopy: from quantifying pharmaceuticals in tissue to intra-operative diagnosis during cancer surgery."
Ioan Notingher
Ioan Notingher is Professor in the School of Physics and Astronomy, University of Nottingham and leads the Biophotonics Group. The group focuses on optical microscopy and Raman spectroscopy techniques for label-free molecular imaging of biomaterials, cells and tissues. The group developed numerous collaborations with clinicians, academics working in cancer research, optics and microscopy, as well as industry. Highlights of his work include selective-sampling Raman spectroscopy techniques, Raman spectroscopy techniques based on spatial light modulators, diffuse and spatially offset Raman spectroscopy, with applications in medicine and life sciences. He is a Fellow of the UK Institute of Physics, Senior Member of Optica, and has been a member of the Society of Applied Spectroscopy since 2010.
