Biophotonics and Imaging Graduate Summer School (BIGSS) 2024

Tissue Optics and Microcirculation Imaging (TOMI), University of Galway

05-09 August 2024

Kylemore Abbey, Galway, Ireland

The biennial BIGSS event is a five ECTS accredited course with leading professors teaching for approximately four hours each to give a substantial grounding in the main topics of Biophotonics in the beautfiful Kylemore Abbey, Galway Ireland, recently refurbished by the University of Notre Dame.

This is our ninth Biophotonics and Imaging Graduate Summer School. It is an important opportunity for graduate students in 2024 to access the kind of close contact with leading professors that only this kind of environment facilitates.
