Micro Imaging Facility

The Micro Imaging Facility specialises in three-dimensional imaging and analysis, using some of the most exciting microscopy technologies available today.

These technologies, funded by the NSW Government, reduce imaging time from hours to just minutes and have revolutionised 3D and live imaging, anatomical phenotyping, and drugs and mutation screening.
