Quantitative Light Microscopy Core
User-centered microscopy support
Whether you are part of the UT System, from another academic institution, or working with a nonprofit or for-profit organization, the Quantitative Light Microscopy Core (QLMC) provides end-to-end support for microscopy projects.
In addition to access to advanced microscopy platforms, we can discuss your imaging goals and advise on fluorescent probes, experimental design, and sample preparation. We help identify the most appropriate imaging modality, provide personalized microscope training, and assist with customized image quantification and automation of image-analysis workflows.
