About
Dr. Erwin Strasser is a pioneering researcher in biomedical imaging and hematology, whose work centers on advancing non-invasive microscopy techniques for studying blood cell morphology. His most notable contribution is the development of a comparative methodology integrating scanning ion conductance microscopy (SICM) with robotic dark-field microscopy, enabling the first high-resolution, label-free visualization of live blood platelets without the damaging fixation, staining, or metal coating required by traditional electron or fluorescence microscopy. This breakthrough, detailed in his highly cited 2016 paper (17 citations), preserves native platelet structure and dynamics, offering unprecedented insights into thrombocyte behavior and pathophysiology. Dr. Strasser’s innovative approach bridges the gap between ultrastructural detail and physiological relevance, providing a powerful tool for diagnosing platelet disorders and monitoring therapeutic responses. His work has been recognized as a transformative step in live-cell imaging, with his methodology now adopted by laboratories worldwide for studying cellular biomechanics and drug interactions. By eliminating invasive sample preparation, Dr. Strasser has set a new standard for morphological analysis in hematology, directly impacting clinical research into bleeding disorders, thrombosis, and cardiovascular disease.
