A current research focus at Leibniz IPHT is the development of highly compact fiber-based probe concepts for the clinical in vivo application of Raman spectroscopy. The project aims to purchase spectrometers and lasers specifically for clinical studies in the field of biophotonic spectroscopy.

The project is financed by the Free State of Thuringia under the number 2016 FGI 0011 and co-financed by European Union funds within the framework of the European Regional Development Fund (ERDF).
