Spinning disk confocal microscopy and imaging
The High Resolution Microscopy Laboratory contains an Olympus spinning disk confocal microscope equipped with a weather station, and MetaMorph image acquisition and analysis software. The laboratory also contains a Leica fluorescence stereomicroscope for high throughput screens or applications requiring lower resolution. This facility is used by researchers who study tissue cell cultured cells, Caenorhabditis elegans, and Drosophila.
