SUMMARY:Accelerating HealthTech Innovation: The Power of Optics and Photonics
DESCRIPTION:Date: Wednesday 20 May 2026\n\nTime: 1pm to 4pm\n\nLocation: School of Computer Science building\, Room A07\, University of Nottingham Jubilee Campus\, NG8 1BB\n\n\n \nAbout this event\nHosted by the University of Nottingham Centre for Healthcare Technologies (CHT) in partnership with the Association of British HealthTech Industries (ABHI)\, this interactive half-day workshop showcases how cutting-edge optics and photonics research can help industry partners solve complex imaging\, sensing and miniaturisation challenges in the field of Healthcare Technologies. \nDiscover ground-breaking innovations\, including: \n\nMiniaturisation and Compact Devices: Discover how photonics is making diagnostic tools smaller\, smarter and clinically practical.\nAdvanced Imaging and Tissue Analysis: Go beyond standard imaging to measure tissue properties like absorption\, scattering and mechanical characteristics.\nBiochemical and Physiological Sensing: Explore label-free and point-of-care sensing technologies\, from Raman spectroscopy for biochemical fingerprinting to fibre-based monitoring.\nMicro- and Nano-scale Measurement: Learn how micro- and nano-scale tools can probe cells and tissues for early disease detection.\nAI-enabled Computational Imaging: Understand how artificial intelligence and synthetic data are improving imaging and signal reconstruction.\n\nBy attending\, you’ll gain insight into these cutting-edge innovations\, explore collaborative opportunities and identify pathways to translate emerging optics and photonics solutions into commercial HealthTech applications. \nWho should attend?\nThis event is ideal for established SMEs and larger companies working in HealthTech\, MedTech\, life sciences\, optical technologies\, imaging\, diagnostics or minimally invasive devices that have the capacity\, resource and strategic intent to partner on collaborative R&D projects with the University of Nottingham. \nWhy attend?\n\nConnect with leading experts in optics\, photonics\, imaging and diagnostic innovation\nExplore collaborative R&D ideas with multidisciplinary research teams\nGain insight into emerging photonics technologies that can unlock new product capabilities\nLearn how to access translational funding to initiate early-stage partnerships\n\nSpeakers\nOur programme is designed to encourage interaction\, idea-sharing and collaboration: \n\nFlash talks: Hear from researchers and industry leaders as they present their latest work in short\, engaging talks.\nFunding advice: Gain practical guidance on available funding opportunities\, including how to identify the right scheme\, strengthen your application\, and build competitive\, collaborative proposals.\nSpeed and free networking: Continue the conversation in an informal setting designed to encourage open discussion and idea sharing.\n\nBook your place\nPlaces are limited at this event to ensure meaningful discussion and productive networking. They will be allocated on a first-come\, first-served basis. Early booking is strongly recommended to avoid disappointment. \nTo reserve your place at this event\, please complete a short online booking form. \nBy registering for this event\, you agree that the University of Nottingham may share your personal details with the National Biofilms Innovation Centre (NBIC). NBIC event data is administered and processed by the University of Southampton. Data collection is carried out in line with relevant data protection laws and the University of Southampton Data Protection Policy.
