Ankit Butola
Stillingsbeskrivelse
Background
Dr. Butola's leads the Biophotonics Research Group at the Department of automation and process engineering (IAP), UiT The Arctic University of Norway, focusing on the development of advanced optical and photonic systems for applications in biology, medicine, and interdisciplinary research.
His research integrates biophotonics, microscopy, and optical system engineering, with particular emphasis on quantitative microscopy, super-resolution imaging, label-free tomography, and computational imaging. The group works on both fundamental optical design and application-driven solutions for biological and biomedical imaging.
At UiT, Dr. Butola is a Principal Investigator, leading RCN projects on on-chip morpho-molecular tomography development. New collaborators are always welcome and student projects for thesis are available. More information can be found on LinkedIn ( click here )

Forskningsinteresser
My research converges at the intersection of optical imaging, computational techniques, and bioimaging. I am a developer of cutting-edge optical microscopy and nanoscopy techniques for biomedical applications. I am particularly interested in multimodal imaging and to improve the performance of label-free imaging. Examples are multimodal on-chip nanoscopy and quantitative phase imaging to measure nanoscale morphology of liver sinusoidal endothelial cells, high spatially sensitive quantitative phase microscope, or multiscale structured illumination microscopy. I develop innovative imaging methods for biomedical research and sustainable aquaculture applications.
