Coming Soon!

A Durham team have been awarded a BBSRC ALERT22 grant to buy a dual camera Lattice Lightsheet microscope.

The transformative system will enable live cell, long term volumetric imaging opening up a whole range of new biological questions and research opportunities. Our microscope will be modified to include controlled growth photoperiods for plants and will be shared with collaborators and the wider UK plant imaging community. Thankyou BBSRC
