Microscopy and Advanced Optical Imaging

Node MAOI

Core Team: Wolfgang Drexler, Wolfgang Weninger
Speaker: Wolfgang Weninger

The node assembles clinicians and basic scientists, who are interested in developing, improving, and applying microscopic and advanced optical imaging methods. The methods cover the entire spectrum from electron tomography and conventional histology on the one side to optical coherence tomography (OCT) and photoacustic imaging on the other side.

The following three links inform about the special experience and the accessible apparatuses the node partners are prepared to provide to scientific joint projects.


QUO VADIS – Node Vision

  • Providing access to cutting edge imaging technologies
  • Bridging the gap between basic sciences and clinical routine
  • Rising awareness for the broad variety of microscopic & optical imaging techniques
  • Fostering the establishment of multimodal, multi-resolution imaging pipelines
  • Being a platform for discussion and training
