Summary
High-resolution imaging of live cells and tissue. Understanding the machinery of life and developing technologies that support life's processes requires biological and physical scientists and engineers to monitor molecular events in living systems. The aim is to take advantage of very recent developments in light microscopy to enable the non-invasive imaging of live cells and tissue at a previously unreachable level of detail. The instruments will form the nucleus of a new imaging facility. Sign ....High-resolution imaging of live cells and tissue. Understanding the machinery of life and developing technologies that support life's processes requires biological and physical scientists and engineers to monitor molecular events in living systems. The aim is to take advantage of very recent developments in light microscopy to enable the non-invasive imaging of live cells and tissue at a previously unreachable level of detail. The instruments will form the nucleus of a new imaging facility. Significant advances in research areas including vascular research, cancer, immunology, cell and molecular biology, functional genomics, biotechnology, nanotechnology and material engineering will be of major benefit both nationally and globally.Read moreRead less
