Scope
This special section is intended as a collection of selected papers presented at the International Russian-Chinese Workshop “Light for Life Sciences,” held from October 17 to 20, 2025, in St. Petersburg, Russia. We invite papers covering the latest scientific advances and innovations in the application of optics in the life sciences: optical and laser technologies for medicine and biology, the dynamics of ground and excited states of biomolecules under laser excitation, precision mechanics and control of tissues and cells, related materials and environmental issues, optical imaging, spectroscopy, and molecular modeling.
The following topics are of the special interest:
- Fluorescence lifetime imaging microscopy (FLIM) and its biological applications
- High resolution optical microscopy of tissues and cells
- Tissue optical clearing technology
- Time- and spatially resolved luminescence of fluorophores in solutions, cells, and tissues
- Optical imaging of biomolecular samples by means of Pump-and Probe (P-P), Induced Raman Scattering (IRS), CARS, and Second Harmonic Generation (SHG) spectroscopy
- Vibrational and nonadiabatic dynamics in the ground and excited states of biomolecules under polarized laser excitation: experiment and theory
- Time-resolved luminescence of photosensitizers and reactive oxygen species generation in solutions and living cells
- Optical imaging via advanced light-field control
- Optical Capillaroscopy of red blood cells aggregation in microvessels for medical diagnosis
- Liquid-microjet photoelectron spectroscopy for the study of UV photoionization dynamics of biomolecules
- QPI-based multimodal imaging for analysis of photodynamic treatment
- Machine Learning (ML) for analysis of experimental data in life sciences
