The Light Microscopy and Laser Capture Core Facility at SAHMRI was established in 2014. Five light microscope instruments and a laser capture instrument are available in the Facility.

The Facility is available for use by SAHMRI and its partners, by external academic and commercial users. The Facility Manger is available for consultation for projects and experiments involving the use of these instruments.

For further information about the Facility or your project-specific microscopy requirements, please contact the Facility Manager.
