Biography

Vasile Diaconu, PhD in Biomedical Engineering, focuses on the behavior of photons interacting with matter, which gives the sensation of light and color. He studies the human visual system to explain its significant capacity to discriminate colors and its color vision anomalies, contributing to understanding the color nuances perceived by individuals with color blindness. His innovative research led to the development of a new device based on spectroradiometry that allows real-time measurement of subtle metabolic changes. He is involved in various teaching and supervision roles, guiding multiple graduate theses related to vision science and color perception.
