Piotr Kasprzycki PhD

I am a Postdoctoral Researcher in the Physical Optics and Biophotonics Group led by Prof. M. Wojtkowski at the Institute of Physical Chemistry Polish Academy of Sciences. I joined this Group in 2019 after obtaining my Ph.D. in Physics from the University of Warsaw.

I specialize in biomedical imaging, polarization-sensitive optical coherence tomography, quantitative micro-elastography, and time-resolved fluorescence measurements. These advanced techniques pave the way for groundbreaking discoveries in medicine.

Research groups

The research in our group can be seen as a perfect interplay between physics, biology and chemistry. We are focusing on developing imaging techniques and using them in many biological and chemical systems.
