MDID investigates 3D and real-time optical imaging approaches and technologies, mostly in micro scale. Our researches are pursued in four major directions:
Advancing and improving the imaging methodologies.
Integration of imaging techniques with each other and with other optics and acoustics based methods, toward multi-modal imaging and enhanced detection.
Applications to various phenomena in soft matter e.g. in biology samples and microfluidics, and metallic specimens.
Developing products and systems for diverse applications.
We are also interested in investigation of various interesting phenomena in soft matter, such as active matter translocation and collective motion, droplet circuits, liquid-liquid interfaces, binary mixtures, microrheology, etc.
Our researches have been supported by:
IASBS Research Department
Iran National Science Foundation
Development of Photonics, Lasers, Advanced Materials and Manufacturing Council
We have been collaborating with several groups and scientists from USA, UK, Italy, Netherlands, France, India, Turkey, and Pakistan, and Iranian institutions.
You are welcome to contact MDID people for additional information about our activities and for possible collaborations.
