3D Nanoscale Imaging (3DNI)
Developing new pharmaceuticals, understanding how cancer cells respond to chemotherapy, or building ever more powerful computer chips – all this, and more, requires imaging at the smallest possible scales. The 3DNI programme develops technology for super-fast 3D imaging of atoms, molecules, and cells.
To achieve this goal, the researchers engineer novel light and electron microscopy technology. Combining these with computer algorithms and artificial intelligence unveils details smaller than the wavelength used for microscopy.
