The 16th International Conference on Photonics and Imaging in Biology and Medicine

We regret to announce that the 16th International Conference on Photonics and Imaging in Biology and Medicine (PIBM 2022) originally scheduled for December 1-4, 2022 in Haikou, China has been postponed to March 29-April 1, 2023 due to the challenges of travel restrictions in many major cities.

PIBM is the largest international series conference in biomedical photonics hosted in Asia. Suggested by Dr. Britton Chance, father of biophotonics, PIBM was launched by Huazhong University of Science and Technology biyearly in 1999-2005 and became yearly in 2006-2014. PIBM is designed as a forum where scientists, engineers, and clinical researchers from multidisciplinary fields communicate to apply optical and imaging solutions to answer the questions in biology and medicine. The scope of this conference ranges from basic research to application and demonstration, including but not limited to neurophotonics, immunophotonics, agri-photonics, analytical biophotonics, and translational biophotonics.

PIBM 2022 will continue to set the Best Student Paper Award for excellent papers contributed by the students. Authors of all the presented contributions may choose to publish a conference paper in the Proceedings of SPIE (EI indexed) or submit to the peer-reviewed journal, Journal of Innovative Optical Health Science (JIOHS, SCI impact factor 2.396, also indexed by EI and Scopus).
