Frequency Domain Fluorescence Lifetime Imaging Microscopy (FD-FLIM)
FD-FLIM quantifies fluorescence lifetimes with high precision to reveal molecular interactions and infection-related biochemical processes in living tissue. This master’s thesis focuses on the development, optimization, and characterization of an FD-FLIM setup tailored for reliable and high-throughput lifetime imaging.
Combination of OCT and Autofluorescence
When structure meets function, images tell a deeper story – that’s the promise of a new system combining OCT and autofluorescence imaging. In a master’s thesis, a versatile platform was built that could one day support advanced biomedical applications, from lab studies to cardiac diagnostics.


Expansion of VIS-OCT with a fluorescence system
Seeing life in new dimensions – a student project in Jena brings together OCT and fluorescence microscopy to reveal both structure and function in living organisms. The newly developed system opens the door to faster, more detailed insights in biomedical research far beyond the nematode C. elegans.
Utilization of AI to Reduce Imaging Noise
Sharper images for sharper insights – artificial intelligence is stepping in to refine how we see the microscopic world. A bachelor’s thesis tested new methods for denoising OCT images, paving the way for more precise imaging in research and medicine.


Construction of a Hyperspectral Imaging Set-up
This master’s thesis involved the establishment and description of a special measuring station for hyperspectral imaging. This opens up a fascinating field of research in biomedical technology, which also offers a wide range of applications from earth observation to medical diagnostics.
Mixed Reality for Biomedical Data
The project topic may seem futuristic at first glance, but “holomedicine” – i.e. the technical support of medicine through holograms and mixed reality (MR) – offers completely new and important perspectives and solutions. In their work, the students therefore explored extended communication and interaction with MR glasses, the Microsoft HoloLens 2 and its interactive environment.
