Imaging Facility

The CECAD Imaging Facility was founded in 2009 as a light microscopy facility for the excellence cluster and the University campus. In 2013, the facility was extended to a light and electron microscopy platform. We are located at the CECAD main building at the Uniclinics campus and provide a spectrum of services to the scientists.
