Our Light Microscopy Imaging Platform hosts a wide range of cutting-edge imaging systems for advanced microscopy.
These include confocal, multi-photon and super-resolution modalities, enabling users to address research questions in living systems across temporal and spatial scales.
Our staff have experience with a wide range of specialised imaging methods and train scientists to use our equipment, actively engaging in discussions about experimental strategy and design as well as working alongside our Bioinformatics group to help users with image processing and analysis problems.
Our Platform includes the UCL Super-Resolution Imaging Facility and complements systems in the UCL-ZEISS Multiscale Imaging Centre.
