Optical imaging resource
The Institute of Molecular Biosciences harbors state-of-the-art imaging infrastructure and technologies, such as coherent anti-Stokes Raman scattering (CARS) microscopy, second harmonic generation (SHG) microscopy, two-photon microscopy, superresolution stochastic optical reconstruction microscopy (STORM), as well as high-end confocal laser scanning microscopy and high-resolution light-sheet microscopy. The infrastructure plays an integral role in the Field of Excellence BioHealth-Graz. Besides, it is available for large-scale projects such as “Spezialforschungsbereiche” (SFBs) and Ph.D. programs at the institute. Academic lectures and seminars in imaging-informatics enable self-usage of high-end systems such as confocal microscopy. Furthermore, scientific collaborations are welcome.
