Resources & tools

For information on how to submit project to the facility and get access to the latest technology for high resolution live-cell imaging, please write to Dr Chengchen Wu and for confocal imaging please write to Michaela Egertova. 

Access to Elyra funded by QMUL and BBSRCDNA expression patterns, Leitch

For information on access to the Elyra please write to Viji Draviam.

All projects (preliminary data) are reviewed to assess feasibility using non-SRM or non-deconvolution microscopes; UKRI funded projects are costed 30GBP/hr while others are costed 45GBP/hr. Experiments run for longer than 6hrs (irrespective of funders) are costed at 20GBP/hr.

Access to Lattice Lightsheet 7 (LLS7) funded by QMUL and MRC

The LLS7 allows gentle and long-term high-resolution 3D-imaging of live samples from single cells to embryos.  For information on access to the LLS7 please contact Chengchen Wu and Viji Draviam.

Access to DV Core funded by CR UKOwenia early larva

For access to the DV Core (funded by CR UK), for photobleaching (FRAP) or live-cell imaging studies, please write to Viji Draviam.

 

Access to ETL microscope sponsored by IMSOLETL Montage

For access to the ETL microscope sponsored by IMSOL, please write to Viji Draviam.

 

Access to DV Elite funded by QMULDV-Elite

For access to the DV Elite funded by QMUL, please write to Petra Ungerer and Viji Draviam

Data Visualization, Processing, and Analysis

We have data analysis training course (45GBP/hr), and access to several automated and semi-automated image analysis softwares. We also have access to SIM-FRAP (photokinetics in the super-resolution regime) setup and custom-build method for measuring FRAP recovery rates. For more information, please contact Chengchen Wu and Viji Draviam.
