Exploring novel routes to early cancer detection with femto- and attosecond …
research activities — Cancer occurs when a single living cell acquires the capacity to reproduce without control in the human body, grows aggressively and invades other tissues. Increasing the fidelity of early cancer detection and establishing a better quantitative understanding of initial changes that drive tumor growth at a molecular level are paramount to …

tools, techniques and labs — Molecular vibrational infrared laser spectroscopy, by means of femtosecond infrared absorption spectroscopy and stimulated Raman scattering, takes advantage of the fact that each molecular species exhibits a characteristic set of vibrational frequencies based on the molecule’s unique atomic structure. The complete set of these …
