Israel BioImaging
The EUBI-Israel Node is a multi-sited, multi-modal Node including seven hosting sites across Israel. It offers access to a broad range of technologies from biological, molecular to medical imaging. The focus and unique aspect of Israel Bioimaging is facilitating and enabling cross-modality imaging spanning all scales from single-molecule to in vivo and clinical imaging. The node enables seamless correlative imaging from Electron microscopy and advanced Biological microscopy through advanced live and high throughput imaging to in vivo preclinical and clinical imaging along with the capacity for advanced image analysis and computation.
Specialties and expertise of the Node
Israel BioImaging offers cutting edge imaging platforms and cross modality capabilities to allow multiscale imaging to enable seamless transition from cells to tissues and organs to whole body imaging. Applications range across all life forms and pathologies, from marine biology and plant science to developmental biology, infectious diseases, neuroscience, cancer and aging.
