Paul Dalgarno received the M.Phys. and Ph.D. degrees in physics from Heriot-Watt University, Edinburgh, U.K., in 2001 and 2005, respectively. Until 2010, he researched self-assembled quantum dot systems at Heriot-Watt, specialising in time resolved spectral measurements. In wan, as an R&D Engineer on optical and wireless communication transceivers and transferred knowledge to industry. From 2007, he worked at the University of Edinburgh on the EU projects MEGAFRAME and METOXIA to develop CMOS

... ngle-photon avalanche diode (SPAD) based fluorescence lifetime imaging (FLIM) & spectroscopy systems. From 2011 to 2013, he was a Lecturer in biomedical engineering, University of Sussex, working on various electrical impedance tomography/spectroscopy and FLIM projects. He has expertise in mixed-signal circuits, FLIM systems and analysis, computing and numerical analysis, and optical communications. His current research interests include the applications of SPAD sensors for fluorescence imaging and spectroscopy, GPU computing techniques for image analysis, and FLIM-FRET techniques for cancer diagnosis.
