Facility for imaging by light microscopy (FILM)
From Anopheles to zebra fish, from Hubble’s solar panels to fungal growth, the Light Microscopy imaging facilities at Imperial College London have seen it all.
The facility boasts the most up to date light microscopy equipment, allowing users from all disciplines to visualise and measure their samples. Close relationships with the photonics research group at Imperial also mean the facility has access to the latest developments in light imaging.
The facility manager, Dr Martin Spitaler, and his team have many years experience working with diverse techniques and samples. They provide full user support and training as well as advice and guidance on all steps of an imaging project, from sample preparation to the best methods to analyse unstructured, multi-dimensional image data.
Recent upgrades to the data management processes and visualisation software now means that the facility can handle higher through-put experiments.
With modern facilities, comprehensive support and a wide range of experience, the facility and its staff are well placed to help your organisation with its imaging needs.
