Open access to cutting-edge electron and light microscopy
We provide researchers from Europe and beyond with a synergistic portfolio of imaging services including cryo-EM, super-resolution and intravital microscopy to enable new ground-breaking research that crosses the scales of biology.
Our light microscopy technologies cover all scales from the latest super-resolution technologies to high-speed and high resolution live-cell, as well as intravital and deep tissue imaging, with a focus on non-commercial, academically developed technologies.
Technologies include STED, STORM/PALM and MINFLUX that enable imaging of fixed and living cells below the diffraction limit of light.
Technologies cover various scales, wide-field and confocal imaging and enables time-lapse imaging of organells, cells, tissues and organisms.
Technologies cover various modalities, including light-sheet microscopy, multi-photon imaging, and tissue micro-dissection.
We offer services in cryo-confocal imaging visualising fluorescently labelled structures in cells and tissues frozen on EM grids.
The IC is actively involved in research related to cryo-light microscopy. We are in particular supporting the development of cryo-super-resolution imaging and related workflows.
