Ruslan I. Dmitriev

Ruslan I. Dmitriev is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Human Structure and Repair, Ghent University, Ghent, Belgium. He received his Ph.D. in bioorganic chemistry from the Shemyakin-Ovchinnikov Institute of Bioorganic Chemistry, Russian Academy of Sciences and received postdoctoral training from the University College Cork, Ireland. Before joining Ghent University in 2020, Ruslan has led Metabolic Imaging Group as a staring investigator / research fellow at the University College Cork. Dr. Dmitriev’s research interests are in imaging of cellular oxygen gradients and cell metabolism in the three-dimensional tissue models, such as tumor and stem cell-derived spheroids and intestinal organoids, using multi-parameter live cell microscopy methods such as fluorescence lifetime imaging microscopy (FLIM) and high-performance protein-, bioconjugate- and nanoparticle-based biosensors. Dr. Dmitriev current work aims at developing advanced tools to study cell metabolic requirements in the 3D cancer and stem cell-derived organoid models and addressing their heterogeneity using imaging-assisted tissue engineering tools.
