December 9 - 11, 2012 · Tel Aviv Israel
Supported by SPIE, the 1st International Biophotonics meeting in
Israel (BPI2012) will gather globally renowned scientists from around
the world, Israeli scientists and clinicians, as well as industrialists
and entrepreneurs. This group will present their work and discuss open
issues in the field, while exposing the up-to-date research at the
frontier to local students, researchers, and industrial research and
development representatives. The meeting aims to strengthen connections
and trigger bi-national and multi-national research collaborations.
Presentations will be given orally and in poster format. Social meetings, student-mentor events, and a tour in Israel are planned as well. The Biophotonics community will honor Prof. Abraham Katzir for his leadership and achievements and in the field of Lasers in Medicine and biology. A special issue of the Journal of Biomedical Optics will be dedicated to papers presented in the meeting.
Keynote speaker will be Steven L. Jacques (Oregon Health & Science University, Depts. of Biomedical Engineering & Dermatology). Conference invited speakers include Irving Bigio, Boston University; Daniel Palanker, Stanford University and Gabriel Idan, Given Imaging.

Biophotonics is a major field in Israel: at the Israeli academy, in
hospitals, and in industry. Leading biophotonics companies have been
established and operate in Israel. In addition, there are a large number
of Israeli start-up companies that develop cutting-edge biophotonics
technologies. The entrepreneurial nature of the country stimulates
translational research in this field.
