The equipment proposal aims to establish West Australia's only super-rapid-speed, high throughput confocal microscopy facility. The technology will provide researchers in biotechnology, medicine, environmental biology and agriculture with contemporary state-of-art opportunities to analyse living cells and/or large-area tissue specimens in three-dimensions with the highest possible speed and high-resolution. West Australia hosts 1 twelve-year old historic rapid-acquisition confocal microscope that is heavily subscribed, no longer manufactured and prone to regular, prolonged, costly breakdowns. Accessing high-speed confocal systems in other states is not a viable option putting WA-based researchers at a significant disadvantage.

该设备提案旨在建立西澳大利亚州唯一的超高速，高通量共聚焦显微镜设施。该技术将为生物技术、医学、环境生物学和农业领域的研究人员提供当代最先进的机会，以尽可能高的速度和高分辨率分析三维活细胞和/或大面积组织标本。西澳大利亚州拥有一台拥有12年历史的快速采集共聚焦显微镜，该显微镜已被大量订购，不再生产，并且容易发生定期，长期，昂贵的故障。在其他州，高速共焦系统并不是一个可行的选择，这使得基于WA的研究人员处于明显的劣势。
