Simultaneous imaging of multiple hemodynamic parameters helps to evaluate the physiological and pathological status of biological tissue. Selumetinib price To achieve multimodal hemodynamics imaging with a large field of view, an infinite conjugate relay lens system compatible with the standard C-Mount camera lens is designed to adapt one camera lens with multiple CCD/CMOS cameras for simultaneously multi-wavelength imaging. Using this relay lens system, dual wavelength reflectance imaging and laser speckle contrast imaging were combined to simultaneously detect the changes in blood flow, oxygenation, and hemoglobin concentrations. To improve the accuracy of hemoglobin concentration measurement with an LED illumination source, an integral algorithm is proposed that accounts for the dependence of differential pathlength factors (DPF) on hemoglobin concentrations and the integral effect of both the emission spectrum of the light source and the spectrum response of the detector. The imaging system is validated by both phantom and in vivo experiments, including the arterial occlusion, and the detection of blood volume pulse (BVP) and blood flow pulse (BFP) signal in human subjects. The system helps in the exploration of macroscopic tissue hemodynamics.We introduce an accessible cell phone imaging method using small droplets of microscope immersion oil and consumer-grade oils. Oil droplets were more resistant to evaporation than water droplets, and they resolved cellular structures that were visible using a 20x/0.75 objective. We optically characterized the droplets using a cell phone screen and resolution target. We further obtained cellular resolution images of an onion epidermis and a zea stem cross-section sample. Our droplet-based method enables stable optical imaging for diagnostic and educational purposes without custom setups, specialized components, or manufacturing processes.The performance of fluorescence microscopy and nanoscopy is often discussed by the effective point spread function and the optical transfer function. However, due to the complexity of the fluorophore properties such as photobleaching or other forms of photoswitching, which introduce a variance in photon emission, it is not trivial to choose optimal imaging parameters and to predict the spatial resolution. In this paper, we analytically derive a theoretical framework for estimating the achievable resolution of a microscope depending on parameters such as photoswitching, labeling densities, exposure time and sampling. We developed a numerical simulation software to analyze the impact of reversibly switchable probes in RESOLFT imaging.Food systems contribute to up to 37% of global greenhouse gas emissions, and emissions are increasing. Since the emissions vary greatly between different foods, citizens' choices can make a big difference to climate change. Public engagement events are opportunities to communicate these complex issues to raise awareness about the impact of citizens' own food choices on climate change and to generate support for changes in all food system activities, the food environment and food policy. This article summarises findings from our 'Take a Bite Out of Climate Change' stand at two UK outreach activities during July 2019. We collected engagement information in three main ways (1) individuals were invited to complete a qualitative evaluation questionnaire comprising of four questions that gauged the person's interests, perceptions of food choices and attitudes towards climate change; (2) an online multiple-choice questionnaire asking about eating habits and awareness/concerns; and (3) a token drop voting activity where visitors answered the question 'Do you consider greenhouse gases when choosing food?' Our results indicate whether or not people learnt about the environmental impacts of food (effectiveness), how likely they are to move towards a more climate-friendly diet (behavioural change), and how to gather information mor
