PicoQuant’s Single Molecule Spectroscopy and Superresolution Imaging sessions at Photonics West / BiOS 2018

Outstanding lectures, ample opportunities for networking

The Single Molecule Spectroscopy and Superresolution Imaging sessions organized by PicoQuant at Photonics West / BiOS 2018 from January 27-28 in San Francisco was an outstanding success. A large audience enjoyed the presentations and lectures by renowned scientists covering a broad range of subjects. Nobel prize winner Stefan W. Hell’s presentation on MINFLUX and Xiaoliang S Xie’s talk on single cell genomics were the sessions crowning highlights.

BitMap and PicoQuant – progress in medical tissue imaging

Research project hosted at PicoQuant focuses on developing multichannel photon detection methods for biomedical applications

PicoQuant and the Charité – Universitätsmedizin Berlin are co-supervising an Early Stage Researcher (ESR) as part of the Marie Skłodowska-Curie actions in the Innovative Training Networks H2020-MSCA-ITN. During his stay at PicoQuant, the ESR is preparing a PhD thesis on "Novel Applications for Spectrally Resolved Fluorescence Lifetime Imaging (sFLIM)".

Season’s greetings from PicoQuant

We wish you and your relatives a joyous and peaceful holiday season and happy new year

Since the satisfaction of our customers is the foundation of our success, it is with great pleasure that we can say “thank you” during this holiday season for your pleasant and trustful cooperation throughout this year. We wish you and your relatives a merry holiday time and the best of health, happiness, and success for 2018.

Commitment and social responsibility are two core values of PicoQuant, which lead us to financially support several foundations and charities throughout the year, including Unicef, the Jose Carreras and the Rainforest Foundations.

Our ongoing success as a premiere developer and manufacturer of high-end time-resolved systems, TCSPC electronics, and laser components would not have been possible without our team of outstanding co-workers. We’d like to take the time to thank them for the excellent work, dedication, and inspired ideas.

Following tradition, our Christmas Elves have been hard at work ordering, packing and wrapping gifts for the youngest members of the PicoQuant family. The resulting colorful pile of presents will fulfill many a child’s wish during this holiday season.

The FluoTime 300 spectrometer now available with double monochromators in excitation and emission

The new option strongly improves sensitivity and temporal resolution

PicoQuant proudly announces that the FluoTime 300 fluorescence lifetime spectrometer is now available with double monochromators in excitation and emission. Due to the very high stray light rejection of these monochromators, the signal to noise ratio of the spectrometer is increased to more than 29.000:1 (RMS) using the standard water Raman test. Even samples with a very high scattering contribution can now be studied with extreme sensitivity and ultimate temporal resolution.
