Biography

Tomas Strömberg is a Professor at Linköping University specializing in biomedical engineering and biomedical optics. His research focuses on microcirculation and aims to support healthcare by advancing technical knowledge and creating innovations for Swedish industries. Strömberg has extensive experience in developing and clinically evaluating new methods for tissue characterization, particularly in understanding blood flow within the smallest blood vessels in the body. He leads a research group that employs optical techniques to quantify tissue blood flow and oxygenation, using both visible and near-infrared light to illuminate tissue. The backscattered light is analyzed to assess blood flow and tissue status through advanced methods such as the Doppler Effect. With over 30 years of experience in the field, Strömberg's work has made significant contributions to Laser Doppler Flowmetry, a world-leading technique in the area. He collaborates with Perimed AB, a company that has spun off from the university's research efforts in the 1980s, focusing on innovations in hemoglobin oxygenation monitoring through advanced light analysis. His teaching responsibilities include undergraduate courses on lung physiology and graduate courses on statistical data analysis in biomedical optics.
