Last week was incredible at the IEEE Symposium of Medical Measurements and Applications in Chania. Our team members Sara Del Chicca and Leonardo Maggioni presented their latest works in the biomechanics and wearable sensors research field. Huge congratulations to Sara for 2nd place in the Best Student Paper Award for…
On Wednesday, May 7, our team member Alessandro Bossi successfully defended his PhD thesis concerning the study of optical properties of biological tissues subjected to thermotherapy treatments and obtained PhD in mechanical engineering cum laude. Congratulations again Alessandro. Here’s to greater successes! Find the post also on our…
Congratulations to our Principal Investigator, Prof. Paola Saccomandi, for securing prestigious grant from the European Research Council for the HyperSKIN project, a contactless device to improve the diagnosis and treatment of non-melanoma skin cancer. This device will revolutionize the decision-making process regarding excisional margins before and during surgical removal,…
We are very glad to announce that Andrea Pacheco, post-doctoral fellow of our Lab, has being selected as OPTICA Ambassador for 2025! As an ambassador, she will provide mentorship and support to students and early-stage professionals worldwide, helping them build successful careers in optics and photonics. Stay tuned and…
Lambda Lab will be at this year’s edition of MeetMeTonight at the Università degli Studi di Milano-Bicocca, with two specially dedicated events! During the first one, Prof. Paola Saccomandi, lecturer at the Department of Mechanics of the Politecnico di Milano, together with Paolo Bigini, laboratory head of the Department of…
HERE WE ARE! From this week, the Lambda Lab joins the Instagram community! Updates on our research activities, alerts and events will be posted there as well, where they can be shared further. Follow us on our IG page!
The Horizon Magazine spotlights LASER OPTIMAL research for the treatment of pancreatic tumors. In the Lambda Lab of Politecnico di Milano, Prof. Paola Saccomandi and her team have devised a platform for patient-specific laser treatment of the pancreatic tumor. A precise treatment is fundamental, as the pancreas has…
See the last interview of Prof. Saccomandi at Studio Aperto, regarding the funds that Bruxelles and European Commission provides to Italy “I fondi messi a disposizione da Bruxelles: che cosa è stato fatto e che cos’hanno portato all’Italia” ? Video link (minutes: 0.00 – 3.20)
Join the next OPTICA event! The New Thermometry with Light: Fiber Optic Sensors and Hyperspectral Imaging for Monitoring Thermal-Based Therapies for Localized Tumors. Next Thursday, 13 April 2023, Paola Saccomandi will give a webinar illustrating how we can measure temperature with light, and some biomedical applications of new technology.…
Leonardo Bianchi presented his latest work on the combination of photoacoustic imaging and fiber Bragg grating sensors-based thermometry to monitor thermal ablation procedures, at the 9th Dutch Bio-Medical Engineering Conference (Egmond aan Zee, the Netherlands). The work has been developed at Multi-Modality Medical Imaging (M3I) at TechMed Centre (University of Twente) and it arises…
