The Biomaging Cell and Tissue Core Facility of the Institut Curie (PICT-IBiSA) gathers highly sophisticated equipments and up to date technologies in advanced microscopy. Its main aim is to provide research groups from inside and outside the Institut Curie with a workflow of state to the art imaging approaches to study at different scales and with complementary methods molecules, organelles, cells, whole organisms and tissues in normal and pathological states.

Our Imaging Core Facility gathers equipment in advanced light microscopy (Optogenetics and Active Illumination setups, d-STORM, high resolution SIM, LLSM; multiple MP(NLO), Multi-Angle TIRFM…), electron microscopy (immunololabelling, cellular EM, High-pressure freezing, CryoEM, room temperature and cryo-EM tomography, STEM and EFTEM 2D/3D, chemical mapping) and NanoSIMS, and correlative light-electron microscopy.
