Recent developments in microscopic imaging led to a better understanding of intra- and intercellular metabolic processes and, for example, to visualize structural properties of viral pathogens. In this thesis, the imaging process of widefield and confocal scanning microscopy techniques is treated holistically…
Modern microscopes used for biological imaging often present themselves as black boxes whose precise operating principle remains unknown, and whose optical resolution and price seem to be in inverse proportion to each other. With UC2 (You. See. Too.) we present a low-cost, 3D-printed, open-source, modular…
