Nanoparticles (NPs) play a key role in biological applications, such as bioimaging and biosensing. Their stealth properties—that is, their ability to avoid nonspecific interactions with biological environments—is essential to ensuring their stability and efficacy in vivo. Until now, polyethylene glycol (PEG) has been the gold standard for imparting…
Strasbourg, May 21 and 22, 2026 – Our laboratory made a significant impact at the 2026 Illkirch Campus Days (JCI) with exceptional participation and two awards.
The team led by Prof. Yves MELY, with Pankhi Singh and Dipanjan Mukherjee as first authors, has just published a major study in the field of structural biology. Their work reveals how thienoguanosine (thG), a fluorescent isomorphic analog of guanosine, enables the exploration of the structure and dynamics of hTel22—a human telomeric G-quadruplex…
Neurotransmitters, such as dopamine, are essential biomarkers for diagnosing neurological disorders (Parkinson’s disease, depression, schizophrenia, etc.). However, their detection in biological fluids remains challenging due to their low concentration (on the order of nanomolar) and their structural similarity to other molecules present in…
We are pleased to invite you to JCI 2026 Illkirch Campus days on Thursday, May 21, and Friday, May 22, at the Pôle API. JCI 2026 is a day-and-a-half-long scientific conference bringing together researchers from across the campus to learn, exchange ideas, and get creative! You are a young researcher ? Come and present your work as an…
The Laboratory of Bioimaging and Pathology is immensely proud to announce that Andrey Klymchenko, director of the Photoactive Materials and Bioimaging team, has been awarded the 2026 CNRS Silver Medal.

The Faculty of Pharmacy is proud to announce that Léa DENECHERE and Anthony AUGE, two of its doctoral students, have been selected for the Alsace regional final of the My Thesis in 180 Seconds competition !
The aim of the Laboratory of Bioimaging and Pathology is to use multidisciplinary (biology/chemistry/physics) and multi-scale (from molecule to patient) approaches to study, at both fundamental and applied levels, the properties and roles of a limited number of key biomolecules involved in various pathological processes. Our approach is to develop new therapeutic and diagnostic approaches in oncology and microbiology based on information obtained at the fundamental level. A key feature of the unit is the parallel development and characterisation of innovative fluorescence-based tools, methods and techniques to answer these questions. This multidisciplinary approach, which combines the development of innovative fluorescence and imaging tools to address biological questions, is unique in the French scientific landscape.
