Interventional Biophotonics Week - NCIBT Workshop and Summer School 2024

July 22-26, 2024

We hosted our inaugural Interventional Biophotonics Week on the UC Davis campus from July 17 - July 21, 2023. The hybrid in-person and virtual event brought together leading researchers of the NCIBT and around the world to exchange ideas, foster collaboration, and celebrate the launch of NCIBT at UC Davis.

This workshop is a fundamental component of the center's education and training. It consisted of a two-day Scientific Symposium, featuring Keynote lectures by well-recognized experts in the fields of optical imaging, as well as interactive audience panels on topics like "AI in Biomedical Engineering". The symposium was followed by a three-day Biophotonics Summer School in which engineering students and postdoctoral scholars learned from didactic sessions, group discussions, laboratory demonstrations, introductions to clinical environments, and hands-on training with NCIBT instruments. The event was highly reviewed by participants, and we are already excited to be planning for next year's event, which will take place at UC Davis from July 22 - 26, 2024.

This years's event consists of a two-day Scientific Symposium, led by well-recognized experts in the fields of biophotonics, interventional imaging, as well as invited Keynote Speakers, Lecturers, and Panelists, followed by a three-day Biophotonics Summer School in which graduate students and postdoctoral scholars will learn from additional didactic sessions, group discussions, laboratory exercises involving hands-on training with NCIBT instruments and AI analysis of data, and introductions to clinical environments.
