Delighted to have our new ZEISS Microscopy Celldiscoverer 7 up and running, now installed alongside the KX-2 robot and Cytomat “cell hotel” following another successful BBSRC ALERT equipment award ⭐️

It’s a really flexible setup; confocal imaging with 4 laser lines, widefield with 7 LEDs, plus Airyscan for added resolution. It has full temperature control (cooling and heating) as well as CO2 and O2 modules. The combination of guided acquisition and mixed imaging modalities should open up a lot of possibilities, especially for live-cell and higher-throughput work 🔬

The Cytomat “cell hotel” has capacity for up to 30 plates, helping keep experiments running smoothly over longer time courses.

Looking forward to seeing what everyone does with it!

Something big arrived this week… 👀📦 📦 📦 📦

It’s taken months of work from multiple people, plenty of paperwork, and a lot of anticipation, and it has finally rolled through the door.

And this is only part 1… the next piece of the system will be delivered and installed in a few weeks 😃

We won’t say what it is just yet, but it’s going to open up some incredible possibilities.

Stay tuned. More soon. ✨
