Welcome to the Pégard LabOur Laboratory develops advanced optical instrumentation for applications in biology, neuroscience, and medicine. Our research strategy moves away from traditional microscopy and the reconstruction of visual images. Instead, we are interested in task-based optics and optical instruments that utilize light to interact with biological samples, to measure or manipulate their properties. Our primary research is in neurosciences where we explore technologies that monitor and manipulate neural activity using optogenetics, and calcium or voltage reporters.Our team offers interdisciplinary research opportunities at the intersection between optics, biology, and computer science and we welcome applications from motivated students and researchers at all levels. Please do not hesitate to contact us.
