Dunedin, FL--Ocean Optics has named Gabriel Orsinger of the University of Arizona as the winner of the 2014 Ocean Optics Young Investigator Award, which is presented to a researcher who is a graduate student or has completed their graduate work in the last five years and is the primary author of the best juried paper submitted as part of the “Colloidal Quantum Dots for Biomedical Applications IX” conference at the 2014 SPIE BiOS/SPIE Photonics West Symposium. The award includes a $1,000 investigator reward and a company grant to the investigator’s advisor.

Orsinger was honored for his work with advisor Dr. Marek Romanowski, Research Assistant Professor of Biomedical Engineering at the University of Arizona Cancer Center, as presented in the paper “Intracellular light-induced release of signaling molecules from gold-coated liposomes.” Their work describes the use of gold-coated liposomes as a tool for studying cellular behavior as it relates to cancer and other diseases.

Ocean Optics has sponsored the Young Investigator Award since 2005 and has long supported young scientists from around the world through sponsorships, grant programs, and partnership.
