Stefan Wabnitz from the Department of Information Engineering, Electronics and Telecommunications (DIET) is the coordinator of the Multiprobe project (Real-time endoscopic diagnosis and therapy of gastrointestinal tumours through multimode nonlinear fibres), funded by the European Research Council with a budget of €6.4 million, of which €1.8 million is allocated to Sapienza University.

Multiprobe was awarded funding under the European Research Council's Synergy Grants (SyG) programme, which is dedicated to research topics that require collaboration between scientists with complementary skills and shared resources.
In addition to Sapienza University, the partnership involves the Università Cattolica del Sacro Cuore, the Agostino Gemelli Polyclinic, the Centre National de la Recherche Scientifique (CNRS) together with the University of Limoges in France, and aims to develop new photonic technologies for the real-time diagnosis and treatment of gastrointestinal tumours.
