Our most recent work is out on OCT flowmetry in organ-on-chip (OoC) devices, see rdcu.be/eytR3. In this work we took on the challenge of measuring very small flow speeds in a OoC device using particle-image velocimetry and number-fluctuation OCT.

Looking forward to do exciting work on broadband OCT in the NextDeLights project together with the Hague University of Applied Sciences, @erasmusmc.bsky.social, Super light photonics, and QDI systems. Program is part of KIC call future optical broadband systems.

Six interdisciplinary research projects on optical broadband systems receive funding | NWO

Optical broadband systems play an important role in various sectors, from health diagnostics to the agri-food sector. In order to (further) develop these technologies, the Future Optical Broadband Systems research programme was launched within the Knowledge and Innovation Covenant. With this funding, six consortia can start interdisciplinary research into semiconductor chips, hyperspectral imaging and tomography imaging, amongst others.

These two scientists not only shared a Nobel prize, but are also buried at the same cemetery, which happens to be right around the corner from my home. Gravestones of Lorentz and Zeeman at Kleverlaan cemetery Haarlem.

Being in a PhD defence is particularly fun when you are on topic and when the quality of the work is good. Great work from Johannes Kuebler.

Why are project proposal templates always in Word and never in the scientists preferred Latex format? Fighting with Word the entire morning just to finish in time before the deadline 🎉😬💪🏻

As long as the career evaluation judges scientific leadership on being last author it can be critical for PDs, asst. prof. striving for an academic career path. It can be a good division between the one who gets in the money (PI) and the one who does the PhD daily supervision (PD, asst. prof.).
