Introducing: the BUSM IBIS
The Integrated Biomedical Imaging Suite provides a single location on Robinson 8 for a wide range of digital imaging microscopy applications to support research development and discovery on the Medical Campus.
The suite of rooms is tailored for optimal and safe use of the imaging instruments. The equipment includes a:
- Zeiss LSM 880 Microscope with Airyscan for fast and high-resolution imaging on live and fixed cells, a
- Zeiss LSM 700 Laser Scanning Confocal Microscope for imaging fixed and stained cells and tissue, and a
- Zeiss LSM 710 NLO Microscope for imaging sections of fluorescent tissue using multiphoton imaging methods and includes 3D reconstruction of biological tissue/cells.
Now being assembled in an adjacent room, to be available by April 2021, is a Jeol JEM-1400 FLASH 120 kV-Transmission Electron Microscope.
Future plans include tissue and cell histology services for imaging, and space for new imaging instruments, technology, and support. For more information, click here.
