Centre for Biophotonics

The Centre for Biophotonics hosts a suite of optical microscopes, including widefield, fluorescence, confocal, multiphoton, interference and standing wave microscopes. We also have super-resolution imaging capability and live cell imaging. The facility is adjacent to the wet lab, which includes tissue culture facilities. The Centre for Biophotonics also houses the Mesolab, which is a facility focusing on optical mesoscopy using the Mesolens.
