Abstract This contribution discusses some biological applications of ultrashort laser pulses. Some examples are given of recently developed techniques that exploit the special features offered by ultrashort laser pulses: real time two-photon microscopy with multipoint excitation, fluorescence lifetime measurement by double pulse saturation excitation and pH-sensing by multiphoton quantum control.
