Building a sample platform for live cell imaging
Jeff Jessing, Fort Lewis College
Imaging high resolution live tissues has long been a goal to better understand the development of tissue specific disease and tissue biology. Current imaging techniques allow for live imaging, but not at high resolution or high resolution imaging, but not of living cells.
