Spotlight: Frank Winkler, Professor for Neuro-Oncology, Heidelberg University

Dr. Frank Winkler, at Heidelberg University focuses on the
emerging field of cancer neuroscience, and the way brain cancers
proceed. Winkler has used two-photon imaging to confirm that
glioma cells link through microtubes, similar to typical neurons
in the brain. His groundbreaking work has earned him the 2025
Brain Prize by the Lundbeck Foundation, alongside Dr. Michelle
Monje. And in this spotlight conversation, Winkler discusses the
journey he and Dr. Monje took to arrive at their conclusions, and
how the shape of cancer research, particularly under the umbrella
of neuroscience, is changing.


Spotlight from "All Things Photonics" is a special series of
intimate sit-down conversations with preeminent figures in our
industry.
