A lab that examines cells with light, without staining, to explore how immunity works.

The Biophotonics Lab was established at the Immunology Frontier Research Center as one of the imaging groups that collaborate with immunology researchers. Its main focus is creating new technologies to investigate interesting problems in immunology and biology, and much of this is the development of label-free techniques that probe molecular-, cellular-, and tissue-level information without staining. Of particular interest are the changes that occur in cells that have received immune stimulation. The lab also collaborates with applied physics research groups at Osaka University.
