Tomáš Čižmár leads the group of Complex Photoonics at ISI. Although his scientific background is Physics, throughout his scientific career he took part in a variety of inter-disciplinary projects in Bio-Medical Photonics, mostly related to optical manipulation, digital holography, microscopy and cell biology. His recent research activities are focused on Photonics in random environments and highly turbid media such as biological tissues or multimode waveguides.

Johanna Trägårdh is the leader of the workpackage focused on label-free imaging with chemical contrast. Her research is focused on instrument and method development for imaging and spectroscopy applications. Specifically, for studying light matter interaction at the nanoscale and bio-imaging.
As a postdoc at the University of Bristol she developed an instrument that combined NSOM with crossed beam spectral interferometry for characterising ultrafast light propagation in photonics structures. As a postdoc at the Centre for Biophotonics at the University of Strathclyde, she developed excitation sources and methods for bioimaging. This included e.g. a source for third harmonic generation (THG) imaging in thick brain tissue. She was also part of the team developing the Mesolens, which is a novel instrument for (confocal) imaging over a large field of view with subcellular resolution.
- 2008 PhD, Lund University/LTH, Lund, Sweden (Optical spectroscopy of single nanowires)
- 2008-2009 Postdoc at Lund University/LTH
- 2009-2013 Postdoc at University of Bristol, UK
- 2013-2016 Postdoc at University of Strathclyde, UK
- 2016-current Postdoc at Institute of Scientific Instruments of the CAS, Brno, Czech Republic

Hana Uhlířová is leading the work focused on deep brain tissue imaging within the workpackage of in vivo endoscopy. Her background is in engineering and optics but she always has been interested in biological applications of optical imaging technology. In her research career she has been focused on investigation of brain function, specifically on communication between different types of cells and vessels in the basic response of brain to a stimulus – the hemodynamic response. Now, she would like to use high-resolution endoscopes to investigate these mechanisms in deep brain tissue such as hippocampus in awake animals.

- 2015-2017 Junior researcher, CEITEC BUT, Brno University of Technology, Brno, CR
- 2011-2015 Postdoc, University of California San Diego, CA, USA.
- 2010-2011 Research Assistant, Brno University of Technology, Brno, CR.
- 2006-2010 PhD, Brno University of Technology, Brno, CR
