Details of the Technology Offer

Focus of the bip is to grant researchers access to state-of-the-art analytical imaging technologies. As such, the bip comprises advanced microscopy systems for high resolution studies of fixed and live samples as well as for low-phototoxicity imaging of whole organs and organisms. Image analysis is supported by strong in-house capacities and the university’s high-performance computing facility. Platform users are trained to become proficient on individual systems. Access to the platform under collaborative service agreements is possible on demand.

Our team works in close collaboration with platform users and research groups to support instrument use, quality control, data acquisition, analysis, and interpretation. Specific expertise in image analysis enables us to assist users with the development of custom-made software tools.
