Diseases such as cancer and neurodegeneration on the cellular level can be reflected in aberrant migratory behavior or perturbations of cellular organization and structure. The Light Microscopy Core Facility provides state of the art optical imaging technologies that allow researchers to obtain information on the impact of pathologies on these cellular features. The facility provides support for investigators with design and troubleshooting of protocols, in addition to expert technical assistance with sample preparation, immunolabeling procedures and image analysis. Facility equipment is available to all trained users 24/7 on an unassisted basis. New users will be trained on microscopes between 9:00 AM and 5:00 PM.
