Summary
The ultimate goal of the MultiBioScan is to train a talented researcher through a research project focused on the development of novel tools for the early in vivo real-time assessment of the diabetes mellitus complications, including diabetic foot syndrome. This will be achieved using the latest methods of hyperspectral imaging, including the measurement of diffuse reflection, fluorescence, speckle patterns and polarization, as well as an advanced data mining approach. The Fellow will be trained in biomedical optics (biophotonics), a fast growing field of science and medical application. He will receive access to a unique training experience at the host – Aston University (UK), and at academic and industrial secondment partners: University of Oulu (Finland), University-Hospital of Padua (Italy), SPECIM, Spectral Imaging Ltd. (Finland). The MultiBioScan outputs will be relevant to the EU life sciences sector by offering new cost-efficient technologies for real-time in vivo diabetes mellitus complications screening. Given the huge and fast-growing market of medical diagnostic equipment, the project results have a good opportunity for successful commercialisation. The Fellow will use his present connections to optical equipment manufacturers in EU to develop commercialisation opportunities, and new connections will be established through this project. The project brings together a talented young Fellow with a strong biomedical science and engineering background, and an internationally growing group of researchers at Aston University with expertise in the area of developing laser-based photonic devices for biomedical research and clinical diagnostics.The Fellow will be further supported by medical and industrial expert co-hosts who will help train the Fellow in key skills and support the translational research process. The translational part of the project will primarily be aimed at adapting results of scientific studies to actual conditions of clinical practice.
