Abstract
The epidermis is of particular importance in cosmetology as it is considered to contribute greatly to the skin’s condition. Molecular vibrational signatures of the epidermis can be obtained using spectroscopic techniques. In my talk, I will give examples of visualizing water in 2D using near-infrared imaging. I will also introduce the latest results of our research of intracellular morphologies in the human epidermis during the epidermal differentiation process using stimulated Raman scattering (SRS) and water and intercellular lipid distribution in the human stratum corneum using coherent anti-Stokes Raman scattering (CARS).
