Research

The research in the Innovative Imaging Across Scales network covers a range of innovative imaging techniques from structural and single molecular imaging to super resolution optical microscopy, pioneering epigenetic imaging and MR imaging.

Research themes 1

Structural imaging

Advances in cryo-EM are enabling researchers to investigate several types of biological machinery that perform different functions, such as bacterial movement and secretion.

Single molecule imaging

Single molecule microscopy reveals the structural dynamics of individual molecules, otherwise hidden in ensemble-averaged experiments.

Research themes 1

Super resolution optical microscopy

Super resolution optical microscopy is part of the state of the art light microscopy equipment and image analysis tools in the microscopy facility.

Epigenetic imaging

Cross-Faculty researchers have developed pioneering epigenetic imaging which allows in vivo imaging of epigenetic change using bioluminescence and photoacoustic imaging methods.

MR facility

The MR Facility is a multi-disciplinary academic facility which hosts a community of scientists and clinicians using imaging to investigate genetic, cardiovascular, neurological and metabolic causes of disease.
