Our work is focussed on understanding the absorption, disposition and safety of solutes, nanoparticles and cells in the body.  This work is essential in the design and evaluation of new and existing products for human and veterinary health and in understanding how the physiochemical properties of solutes and systems interact with physiological systems in both a positive and negative way. A key aspect in that understanding is to define the time course and effects by non-invasive ex vivo and in vivo imaging in cells, in tissues and in volunteers using advanced multiphoton imaging techniques, including using the unique JenLab Dermainspect -Becker & Hickl multi-wavelength fluorescence lifetime system for human and animal in vivo studies.
