معرفی
Marcus Larsson is Assistant Professor and Head of the Department of Medical Technology at Linköping University, Sweden, where he also serves as Deputy Dean. His research develops optical methods—laser speckle contrast imaging, multispectral imaging and Monte-Carlo modelling—to quantify skin capillary perfusion and oxygenation, work that has continuous funding from national and EU sources and direct translation to cardiovascular risk assessment.
Education:
- MSc in Applied Physics and Electrical Engineering, Linköping University, 1999
- PhD in Biomedical Instrumentation, Linköping University, 2006
Marcus leads the Biomedical Optics group that designs real-time, non-invasive systems combining hardware advances with machine-learning algorithms. By merging spectroscopic and laser-Doppler data his team achieves comprehensive microcirculatory maps applicable to diabetes, sepsis and population-based cohorts such as SCAPIS.
He is Director of Studies for the Biomedical Engineering programme, teaching five core courses from first-year design to specialised optics and modelling, and acts as assistant supervisor for doctoral student Andisheh Etminan. Collaborative projects involve senior colleagues Göran Salerud, Tomas Strömberg and Ingemar Fredriksson and are conducted within the Department of Medical Technology, a national centre for medical technology research and education founded in 1972.
