Dr Radek Machan is a senior research fellow whose main task at SCELSE is to support the users of SCELSE’s Advanced Biofilm Imaging Facility (ABIF) in their microscopy experiments. Beside this, he participates in research projects conducted by the group of Prof. Peter Török, which focus on development of novel optical imaging devices to target specific research needs. Radek’s main expertise is optical micro-spectroscopy and its applications in life sciences. Fluorescence correlations spectroscopy was the main tool and topic in his doctoral studies at Charles University in Prague, Czech Republic and postdoctoral research at NUS. While working at the microscopy core facility at Charles University, Radek took a research interest in Raman microscopy, which he continues to pursue at SCELSE.
