A single-molecule super-resolution microscopy facility in Western Australia: The project aims to establish a facility combining single-molecule imaging with super-resolution microscopy to enable biologists in Western Australia to resolve and directly observe interacting macromolecules in plants, animals and organisms, Interacting macromolecules form the basis of cell biology. Imaging and characterising such interactions in living cells and tissues has become possible with the latest molecular imaging techniques and super-resolution optical microscopy (with spatial resolutions of 20 nanometres or better). The facility seeks to advance science across diverse regional priorities in agriculture, environment, marine ecology, medicine and health.

西澳大利亚的一个单分子超分辨率显微镜设备： 该项目旨在建立一种结合单分子成像和超分辨率显微镜的设施，使西澳大利亚的生物学家能够解析和直接观察植物、动物和有机体中相互作用的大分子，相互作用的大分子构成细胞生物学的基础。随着最新的分子成像技术和超分辨率光学显微镜(空间分辨率为20纳米或更高)的出现，对活细胞和组织中的这种相互作用进行成像和表征成为可能。该设施寻求在农业、环境、海洋生态、医药和卫生等不同的区域优先事项中推动科学发展。
