Ilaria Testa is a Professor in Applied Physics at KTH Royal Institute of Technology, affiliated with the Unit of Biophysics and located at the Science for Life Laboratory (SciLifeLab) . Her research focuses on developing advanced optical bioimaging techniques, such as super-resolution microscopy, to study protein interactions and dynamics in biological systems. She leads the TestaLab , which builds cutting-edge microscopes to visualize nanoscale structures and cellular processes in real-time. Research Interests: Super-resolution microscopy (RESOLFT, STED) Protein dynamics in neurons and synaptic transmission Development of novel imaging technologies (e.g., event-triggered microscopy, STARSS) Her work bridges physics, chemistry, and neuroscience, aiming to uncover fundamental biological mechanisms relevant to health and disease. The lab collaborates on projects involving rotational dynamics of cellular complexes and imaging in live brain tissues. Teaching/Courses: Examiner for Degree Project in Applied Physics (Second Cycle) Teacher for Experimental Physics and Physics of Biomedical Microscopy Labs/Teams: TestaLab at SciLifeLab, part of KTH’s Department of Applied Physics.
