Reopening of the Microscopy Innovation Centre
Hodgkin Building, Guy’s Campus, London
The Microscopy Innovation Centre (MIC) has moved to a brand new location. Join us for the grand reopening on Wednesday 13 November. Take a tour of our newly refurbished state-of-the-art imaging facility, and try our advanced imaging systems, including a Janelia Lattice Light Sheet, a Leica Stellaris 8 FALCON FLIM, and our newest flagship addition: “Nikon AX Confocal / Abbelight SAFe MN360” Single Molecule Localisation Microscopy SMLM system, with ASTER technology offering homogeneous TIRF illumination of the sample over the largest field of view on the market.
Don't miss this exciting opportunity to learn more about the MIC and its transformative role in advancing research!
