T1 | Optics (photonics, quantum optics and microscopy advances)
Photonics explores the generation, control, and manipulation of light across multiple length scales, from macroscopic optical systems to nanometer-scale structures. Within the FNIP program, this topic will highlight recent advances in photonics, quantum optics, and microscopy, focusing on emerging concepts, innovative optical components, and cutting-edge technologies that are shaping the future of imaging, sensing, communication, and light–matter interactions.

T2 |Applications
(Neuroscience advances)
Fluorescence microscopy enables the visualization of the structure and function of specific molecular and cellular components within and between cells. Moreover, it provides powerful tools for linking cellular activity to emergent network behavior across scales. Within the FNIP events, we will explore how fluorescence-based techniques, combined with complementary approaches, can be used to study brain function at the single-cell level and how these methods are driving new advances in neuroscience.

T3 |Models & analysis
(software pipeline and methods)
Computational approaches enable quantitative interpretation of complex experimental data and support the development of predictive models. Within the FNIP events will explore state-of-the-art software tools and computational methods for neuroscience data analysis, as well as optical electromagnetic field simulations, such as beam propagation methods, beam shaping techniques, structured light approaches, and nanoscatter response studies.
