We use our some of the best imaging tools available to take high quality images for research, diagnostics, education or outreach purposes.
Please explore and enjoy the image galleries below.

-
Confocal galleryUsually generated from samples labelled with multiple fluorescent dyes, confocal images are strikingly colourful, although the colours are entirely false as the detectors actually record in greyscale.
-
Transmission Electron Microscopy galleryThese images are of high magnification and resolution, revealing sub-cellular detail. They used to be recorded on photographic film but today we use greyscale digital imaging.
-
Scanning Electron Microscopy galleryThese images have a great depth of focus, suitable for imaging complex, 3D samples. They record in greyscale but images are often false coloured for visual impact.
-
Video galleryMany of our imaging systems generate 3D datasets which can be analysed, segmented and reconstructed to create immersive and interactive views of the samples.
