joined the Institute in July 1996. His main responsibility is in the
development of the Institute's applications-based activities. He obtained
his PhD from the University of Southampton, before working in industry,
developing commercial diode-pumped Nd:YAG lasers. Immediately prior
to joining the Institute, John worked for Keeler Ltd, producing novel
instruments for the treatment and diagnosis of a range of ophthalmic
diseases, including the first commercial diode laser ophthalmic photocoagulator.
These systems are now being sold worldwide. His research interests
are primarily into the use of photonics in the biotechnology arena,
including the application and development of femtosecond lasers for
multiphoton imaging. |
