Project Description

We are developing a multi-view, multi-illumination selective plane microscope. We aim at imaging C. elegans and D. melanogaster embryogenesis at unprecedented spatial and temporal resolution. Our microscope will use advanced optics, including a custom designed line of immersion objectives, in combination with high performance software which will allow for controlling the microscope hardware.
