Professor Satoshi Habuchi’s research focuses on the development of tools and materials for fluorescence molecular imaging. He earned a Ph.D. in Chemistry from Hokkaido University, Japan, in 2001. He performed postdoctoral studies at KU Leuven, Belgium, and Harvard Medical School, U.S. He was appointed an Assistant Professor in 2008 and later an Associate Professor in 2011 at Tokyo Institute of Technology in Japan. He was appointed Associate Professor in 2012 and later Professor in 2019 in the Biological and Environmental Science and Engineering Division at KAUST. 

Professor Habuchi’s research focuses on the development of tools and materials for fluorescence molecular imaging. His research interests include the development of microfluidics-based advanced fluorescence imaging platforms for studying cellular interactions, the development of near-infrared/short wavelength infrared fluorescent probes for single-molecule/particle fluorescence imaging in biological tissues, and the development of new single-molecule tracking methods.
