Micron Oxford: super-resolution imaging of cellular dynamics. (360G-Wellcome-107457_Z_15_Z)
Micron's major goal is to develop and apply the next generation of advanced microscopy methods to facilitate transformational discoveries in cell and developmental biology at Oxford and in the UK. Micron will coordinate and manage the inter-departmental and interdisciplinary cooperation and synergies required to achieve this goal. It will enable Oxford biologists to become early adopters of the most advanced and technically challenging imaging technologies. Micron has already established an o utstanding track record in facilitating collaborations between microscopy technology developers and biologists across Oxford. This Strategic Award will allow Micron to maintain its position as one of the worlds leading sites for the development and application of the many new forms of advanced microscopy, with a particular emphasis on live super-resolution and single-molecule microscopic imaging. The Strategic Award will provide added value to the considerable existing Wellcome Trust investment in individual biomedical investigators in Oxford, and will also facilitate the adoption of complex imaging technologies by other researchers across the UK and worldwide. Thus, Micron will have a significant impact on the Trust's strategic aim of understanding basic molecular mechanisms in cell and developmental biology in health and in disease.
