About This Webinar
The mission of the National Institute of Biomedical Imaging and Bioengineering (NIBIB) is to transform through technology development, their understanding of disease and its prevention, detection, diagnosis, and treatment. As one of the 27 Institutes at the National Institutes of Health (NIH), the NIBIB focuses on supporting the development of tools and technologies in the domain of biomedical imaging and bioengineering.

This talk highlights NIBIB's perspectives, initiatives, and funding opportunities with special emphasis on the field of optical imaging and spectroscopy. These initiatives include Rapid Acceleration of Diagnostics (RADx), NIBIB-supported phantom libraries, development of optical imaging phantoms, quantum sensing in biomedical applications, and various training opportunities.
