STAY INFORMED – SIGN UP FOR UPDATES ON OPTICA MEETINGS.

About Optica Biophotonics Congress

Optica Biophotonics Congress is the premier technical meeting covering the full spectrum of biophotonics—where the science of light intersects with the technologies and practices of biology and medicine. This congress brings together topics previously featured in Optica’s Biomedical Optics and Optics in the Life Sciences meetings, now unified to foster deeper collaboration and broader engagement.

Its mission is to convene an international community of engineers, optical and medical scientists, physicians, junior researchers and graduate students—all dedicated to advancing optical methods that drive discovery and translate innovation into practice. The combined meeting creates a unique opportunity for multidisciplinary exchange among professionals with shared goals and intersecting interests.

The program features invited and contributed oral presentations, panel discussions, poster sessions and postdeadline papers, along with robust networking opportunities and special events designed to spark collaboration and connection.

Key themes include:

• Optical techniques for disease tracking, including real-time monitoring of treatment efficacy and in vivo visualization of cancer margins.
• Innovations in drug imaging and delivery showcasing the latest methods for assessing drug response and advancing targeted therapies.
• Remote health monitoring featuring emerging technologies that support decentralized and continuous care.
• AI-powered biomedical analysis integrating deep learning and machine learning to accelerate data interpretation and discovery.
• Translational biophotonics bridging the gap between research breakthroughs and clinical implementation.
• Neuroscience applications from brain imaging to optical tools that stimulate and monitor neural activity.
