Multimodal Imaging Platform (Z01)

• Subject Area: Immunology
• Term: from 2010 to 2021
• Project identifier: Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft (DFG) - Project number 97850925

The central imaging project offers highly advanced imaging techniques including intravital 2-photon microscopy, multi-epitope ligand cartography, superresolution microscopy and fluorescence life-time imaging/FRET. By providing technical expertise and methodological know-how, Z01 will support CRC854, studying immune cell dynamics in complex in vivo environments, dissecting molecular signaling in life cells, and delineating molecular interactions and phenotypes with high spatial resolution. Moreover, Z01 aims at expanding and professionalizing its structures in order to consolidate this efficient imaging infrastructure beyond the 3rd funding period.
