Imaging Unit

The Imaging Unit supports DEO scientific groups providing state-of-the-art optical imaging platforms and developing on-demand specific imaging and image analysis protocols. It provides its experienced assistance in users’ training to grant direct access to the microscopes, in assisting both microscopy beginners in setting up their experiments and the experienced DEO researchers in pilot experiments or advanced imaging techniques. The available systems cover different microscopy techniques including wide-field and confocal, total internal reflection (TIRF), high content and time-lapse microscopy and the Unit services include the microscopes’ data back-up and storage and the imaging reagents management.
