The SPPIN proudly hosted the kick-off meeting of the CNRS IRN “OMNI-TOOLS” international research network

Experimental neuroscience, as we know it today, is largely building on techniques that were originally developed in very diverse communities including non-linear optics, photochemistry, or light-shaping techniques. What if we bring together leading actors in contemporary topics with molecular and cellular neurobiologists to offer a friendly, open-minded and curiosity-driven emulsion of ideas? OMNI-TOOLS aims at bringing together disjunct communities from very timely, fundamental quantum optics to spatial genomics. The idea is to see if contemporary, latest developments in optics can create an immediate impact in (neuro-) biological applications. We have five years to find out.

On Monday 23/9, the SPPIN proudly hosted the kick-off meeting of the CNRS IRN “OMNI-TOOLS” international research network. 

OMNI-TOOL is co-funded by CNRS Biology and CNRS Physics in collaboration with our israeli partner universities. More infos on this IRN is found on the project website: https://www.sppin.fr/omni-tools/
