The group has been at the forefront of the national and international research in the field for several years. The group has a broad portfolio of projects within the field and a strong national and international network. The research in our group focuses on the following areas:
- advanced vibrational spectroscopy of different biosystems - cells, tissues, and bioliquids
- developing and optimizing microbial bioprocesses for the production of a wide range of bioproducts
- understanding and modelling of scattering phenomena of systems in environmental sciences
- data modelling of spectroscopic data
