The Bioimaging Unit acts as a support structure to help and nurture research done with Light Microscopy inside the institute. Besides managing high-end resources that include multiphoton, point-scanning confocal, spinning disk confocal, light-sheet and widefield systems, we sit with researchers to teach, train, and create software tools focusing on people and their questions.
We provide iMM scientists and visitors with excellence in scientific know-how and expertise in using light microscopy methods for their research, in a personalized approach.

We assist in planning microscopy-oriented projects, choosing materials and equipment, analyzing experimental results, processing acquired images and presenting data. We develop image analysis and processing tools for microscopy data. Together with continuous training of new users, we organize regular courses to introduce users to the most recent microscopy techniques.
