Nowadays, due to the recent Covid-19 pandemic, rapid detection and identification of pathogenic microorganisms causing diseases become the urgent problem for scientists and clinicians. We consider some optical methods, and their application to study absorption and scattering properties of viral particles in purpose of virus identification.
Currently, polymerization chain reaction (PCR)...
The quest to interpret spectra (UV, VIS, Raman, etc.) is a well-known problem for physicists from fields such as experimental, complex systems, or phonics, where with each sample a spectrum can be measured to check its quality and properties, that quest can be seen with each newly studied material or compound [1]. Recent advancements in theoretical frameworks, such as genetic algorithms, and...
The non-invasive localisation of active brain regions is not only an important task in basic brain research, but also clinically, for example in the preoperative diagnosis of epilepsy. This is made possible by electroencephalography and magnetoencephalography (EEG/MEG), which measures the electromagnetic field outside the head, from which the underlying current density distribution in the...
The classical model of harvesting energy for autotroph organisms is based on the ability to produce through photosynthesis with solar-origin photons. However, subsurface regions lack the latter energy source and this presents new challenges for the evolution of life. In order to survive in such extreme environments, alternative mechanisms have been proposed.

As part of our research, we investigated light scattering in biological tissues. We used both experimental research and computer modeling methods to address this issue. The aim of the research is to utilize spectroscopic methods to determine the general composition of biological tissue, specifically human skin. Experimental research was conducted in the medical field, focusing on the skin's...
