As usual, the size of this congress (with ∼300 in-person participants),held at a single beach-front venue, facilitated a high degree of networking and engagement by allparticipants. As a peer-reviewed conference, the invited and contributed presentations were ofhigh quality, including the poster sessions that served as an attractive forum for all attendees tointeract.The 2022 Optica Biophotonics Congress: Biomedical Optics was led by two congress chairs:Dr. Christine Hendon (USA) and Dr. Rainer Leitgeb (Austria). The Congress showcased fiveconference tracks: (1) Clinical and Translational Biophotonics, chaired by Dr. Daniel Elson(UK) and Dr. James Tunnell (USA) ; (2) Microscopy, Histopathology, and Analytics, chaired byDr. Anna Yaroslavsky (USA) and Dr. Jonathan Liu (USA); (3) Optical Coherence Tomography,chaired by Dr. Kostadinka Bizheva (Canada) and Dr. Christoph Hitzenberger (Austria); (4)Optical Tomography and Spectroscopy, chaired by Dr. Jana Kainerstorfer (USA) and Dr. AmirRosenthal (Israel); and (5) Optics and the Brain, chaired by Dr. Pablo Blinder (Israel) and Dr.Erin Buckley (USA).In this feature issue of Biomedical Optics Express, a total of 12 papers are being published,representing a subset of the diverse studies presented at the 2022 Biophotonics Congress:Biomedical Optics [1–12]. The largest number of papers came from the Optical Tomographyand Spectroscopy conference, likely reflecting the rapid advancements being made in that area.We wish to thank all who submitted their manuscripts to this special issue and who participated#483553 https://doi.org/10.1364/BOE.483553Journal © 2023 Received 12 Dec 2022; published 20 Dec 2022Introduction Vol. 14, No. 1 / 1 Jan 2023 / Biomedical Optics Express 386in the Biophotonics Congress. The energy and engagement we experienced was refreshing andinspiring after weathering two years of the pandemic.We encourage everyone to join us at the next Biophotonics Congress: Optics in the LifeSciences scheduled to take place from April 24–27, 2023 at the Hyatt Regency Vancouver inBritish Columbia, Canada.References1.
