The momentum continues on Day 2 of our 39th Physics at Work Exhibition! 🚀 Few of the exciting demos from the day on Light & brain activity, blast wave measurements, and solar cell energy can be seen here. Inspiring young minds! #PhysicsAtWork 🌟🔬🌞 The Grammar School at Leeds Sharples School

Georgina is a student with Gemma Bale in the Neuro Optics Lab lab, here in Electrical Engineering. Take a look at this fab video series.....

In this episode, delve into the fascinating world of near-infrared #spectroscopy with Georgina Leadley. She explains the basic principle of near-infrared spectroscopy, revealing how light penetrates the skull and travels into the brain to generate 3D images of brain activity.🌟🧠

In this episode, Georgina delves into the heart of her research—the imaging cap. She discusses its power to decipher the impact of activities like #music on brain activity, comparing it to silence. Watch the video to learn about the potential of Neuro Optics Lab research. 🎵🧠

Congratulations to Sruthi for presenting at #ACAIN2023 and winning the Best Paper Award! Really excited about our #ML #fNIRS work with Emilia Butters and @mancini_flavia acain2023.icas.cc/best-paper-awa…

Congratulations Gemma Bale & Sarah Bohndiek co-Programme Directors ARIA looking to accelerate technologies for non-invasive optical mapping & sensing across a range of applications from human health to climate change Neuro Optics Lab Churchill College eng.cam.ac.uk/news/gemma-bal…

The best Christmas present I could have asked for - being a published author! 📚 Helped along by my supervisors Gemma Bale and Prof Topun Austin, writing this review was a great experience! More to come next year…👀 opg.optica.org/boe/fulltext.c…

New paper out in our #frontiers special issue: "Subject-specific information enhances spatial accuracy of high-density diffuse optical tomography" by S. Srinivasan , D. Acharya, E. Butters, L. Collins-Jones, F. Mancini, G. Bale frontiersin.org/articles/10.33… #dot #fnirs #neurophotonics

Last week, Emilia Butters got to share our #dementia study - using #fNIRS in the home - at Research at ARUK #ARUKConf24 Really excited that this work got such a great reception!

Earlier this year, we published "Towards an Interpretable Functional Image-Based Classifier: Dimensionality Reduction of High-Density Diffuse Optical Tomography Data" - check it out if you're interested in #fNIRS and #MachineLearning link.springer.com/chapter/10.100…

Brilliant talk today by @DAcharya_ at #LGS2024 on NIRS metrics of glymphatics - exciting times ahead for our sleep work in Cambridge!

As we approach INWED we're sharing the inspiration behind the engineering journeys of 3 @churchillcol students 🌟Miruna: ow.ly/jY7i50SnaSm 🌟Sruthi: ow.ly/bkPX50SnaSn 🌟Juliana: ow.ly/kpqQ50SnaSo Engineering Dept @Whittlelab @SensorCUT @DepartofPhysics

In this 2-episode series, PhD student Georgina Leadley explores the captivating sport of ice skating. In the first episode, she explains the physics of friction on the ice. #Iceskating is both beautiful and challenging due to minimal #friction between the blades and the ice.

In this second episode, Georgina explains how to move forward and backward while #IceSkating. She demonstrates how spinning utilises angular momentum and discusses the mechanics of jumping, including the vertical push and the impact forces upon landing. #Physics #WhatsYourGame

Do you ever think about what your brain does when it's solving a puzzle? Two weeks ago, I was at Green Man running “Mind Games: your brain on puzzles” in Einstein’s Garden alongside Max Hughes, Dr Eva Higginbotham and Alice Morrell

Huge thanks to Gemma Bale & Neuro Optics Lab for supporting this stall, and Deb Vickers & SOUND Lab. Thanks to volunteers Emilia Butters, Jonny, Cameron Smith and Ben Hughes who helped run the stall. Big thanks to Yunjia Xia at UCL for supporting the brain scanning demo

Fantastic to see my research covered on yesterday’s ITV News! DOT-HUB UCL Medical Physics & Biomedical Engineering Birkbeck BabyLab & ToddlerLab Emily Jones Gowerlabs

Great to host an impromptu workshop on phantoms for #fNIRS measurements of cytochrome-c-oxidase yesterday! Looking forward to co-creating a standard for this, if anyone is interested in getting involved let us know

The lab are having a great time at #fNIRS 2024!
