The group offers the use of its state-of-the-art imaging equipment to trained internal and external users. We are available for training and advice and to discuss the possibility of collaborating on specific projects of mutual interest. The instruments offered by the 'Stem Cell Hotel' include high-content imaging and analysis devices (Perkin Elmer Operetta CLS and Perkin Elmer Operetta Mark1), live imaging devices (Essen Biosciences Incucyte Zoom, Nanoentek JuliStage) and quantitative phase microscopy devices (Phasefocus Livecyte). More information about the different instruments available can be found at the Stem Cell Hotel's dedicated iLab core.
