Master thesis: Design and development of a partial Mueller matrix macroscope for visualization of brain tissue University of Berne Universitätsklinik für Neurochirurgie For this master theses project, you will design the new partial polarimetric imaging system by targeting a simplified and real-time acquisition instrument. You will built and carry out the proof of concept of the new instrument using brain specimens. Finally, you will validate the partial polarimeter comparing results extracted from other IMP.

Paid Internship of Computer Science MSc. - NVIDIA University of Berne Universitätsklinik für Neurochirurgie We are looking for a highly motivated MSc student in computer science to help us developing a fully functional research prototype for Mueller polarimetric imaging (MPI) system to be employed on human tissues for surgical analyses, feedback and visualisations. The development will be supervised by PD Dr. Richard McKinley, in strong collaboration with the NVIDIA Holoscan Team. This is a unique internship opportunity to bridge the gap between academia and industry within a fully translational research project in collaboration with Inselspital and University of Bern. Information, Computing and Communication Sciences Internship, Semester Project

Master thesis proposal: Polarimetric instrumentation for biomedical diagnosis of brain tissue University of Berne Universitätsklinik für Neurochirurgie For this master thesis project we intend to address the important requirement for fast acquisition time by targeting a real-time system. For that, your main task will be to build a replica instrument based on an existing IMP system under the guidance of experts in polarimetry.
