Multi-Photon
Multi-spectral deep tissue imaging at fast speed and high resolution with minimal photobleaching.

Capable of label free imaging in cells, 3D cultures, organoids, thick tissue sections (such as fluorescence life time imaging -FLIM, Harmonic Generation).

We provide a one-stop training and service solutions ranging from experimental design, full sample preparation, reagents customisation, new protocol development, data acquisition, to scalable data processing, big data analytics and multi-dimensional visualisation, data and figure reporting.

Our infrastructure supports confocal microscopy, tissue and high content imaging, flow cytometry analysis and high-speed sorting. We also provide hot desks and lockers, full sample preparation bench, fume hood and temporary sample storage, cell culture facility, joint application-support centres and micro-store for customized reagents and consumable kits in partnership with industry, SFA-approved animal procedure room, data-analysis zone with accessible image/data storage and processing capabilities. These enable our users to form a dynamic learning community to design, conduct experiments, analyse data and troubleshoot together.
