Breast Cancer Diagnosis with Exosomes
Tiny cell vesicles in our blood—called exosomes—could revolutionize cancer diagnostics. But how do we isolate and analyze them with precision?
Dr. Jyothi B. Nair, Marie Skłodowska-Curie Fellow at Leibniz IPHT, is developing a microfluidic platform to tackle this challenge. Her goal: a practical solution to improve the diagnosis and treatment of triple-negative breast cancer.

Women in Photonics: international workshop on career opportunities
Your research deserves to be shared. And so do the experiences behind it.
From 23 to 27 May 2027, Women in Photonics will bring together female PhD students and postdocs from around the world to Leibniz-Institut für Photonische Technologien in Jena, Germany.
The international workshop offers early-career researchers in photonics and biophotonics the opportunity to present their findings, receive feedback and discuss new ideas with leading scientists from academia and industry.
What makes Women in Photonics special is that the conversations don't stop at research. There is also room to share personal experiences, discuss the challenges of being a woman in science and learn from others who have faced similar situations. Dedicated career workshops, networking events and lab tours at Leibniz IPHT round out the programme.
Registration and abstract submission are now open. Participation is free of charge, and a limited number of travel grants will be available.
