An Iranian researcher has been honored the ‘DJ Lovell Award’, the largest and most prestigious award of the Optics & Photonics (SPIE) society.

Babak Shadgan, a PhD candidate in the University of British Columbia, was awarded the International SPIE Society’s Scholarship based on his long-range contribution to optics, photonics and related topics.

Shadgan has discovered a new technique for the early and accurate diagnosis of the ischemic muscle injury using non-invasive laser; his findings have been published in several peer-reviewed journals.

The former president of the International Olympic and Paralympics Committee of Iran will receive his award during the 2010 International Congress of Optics and Photonics in San Diego (1-5 August).
