The EU funded project MUSIQ will officially start on 1st April 2019 and aims to develope with the help of 15 early stage researchers (ESRs) the next generation optical microscopy exploitin quantum coherent nonlinear phenomena.
It trains the ESRs on a unique mixture of experimental and computational skills at the physics/chemistry/life science interface. By bringing together a unique team of 6 world-leading academic groups, at the forefront of nonlinear optical microscopy and ultrafast coherent light-matter interaction phenomena, and 6 high tech companies, to translate the results into biomedical/pharmaceutical real-world applications.
The project will run for 48 months under the coordination of Prof Paola Borri from the Cardiff University.
