About Us

Aquaphotomics Research Field was established at the Faculty of Agriculture, Kobe University in 2021 to provide educational and research activities in Aquaphotomics. Our goal is to promote and deepen the investigation of the structure and functionality of water in water-based and biological systems, and serve as a platform for development and launching of new technological solutions based on the aquaphotomics technology in diverse fields of application.

Aquaphotomics in Simple Words

Aquaphotomics is a new “omics” discipline introduced by Professor Roumiana Tsenkova at the Laboratory of Bio Measurement Technology at Faculty of Agriculture, Kobe University, Japan. The main object of this new field is to understand the role of the water molecular system in biological and aqueous systems by monitoring the water electromagnetic (EM) spectrum of those systems under various perturbations.
