Professor Kishan Dholakia (left) and Professor Zaiping Guo Two University of Adelaide scientists have been awarded prestigious Australian Laureate Fellowships by the Australian Research Council. Professor Kishan Dholakia will undertake research into wide-field optical imaging and Professor Zaiping Guo will work on pushing the boundaries of battery technology. Professor Dholakia, from the School of Biological Sciences, is an expert in physics and biophysics. “My Laureate Fellowship aims to transform wide-field optical imaging through a new ‘intelligent’ microscopy able to capture 3D volumetric images,” said Professor Dholakia. “While optical methods for imaging are used extensively, achieving wide-field imaging through scattering media with high resolution and depth is a major challenge, mainly due to the limited penetration depth of light.”
