Establishment of a Multiphoton Microscope Imaging Platform for Live Cell and Tissue, and Optical Imaging

该提案旨在建立一个多学科多光子成像实验室，扩大核心区域成像设施的成像能力。该设施支持所有莫纳什校区和医院研究学校的研究人员，以及维多利亚州地区的外部研究小组。此外，该设备将支持维多利亚大学的重要光纤研究，以开发通信和内窥镜技术。仪器设计将允许多种光源的使用和特定成像设备（显微镜）的选择，以确保生物细胞成像，活体显微镜和光纤设计和成像中的应用得到单独优化。

This proposal seeks to establish a multidisciplinary multiphoton imaging laboratory, expanding the imaging capabilities of a Core Regional Imaging Facility. This Facility supports researchers across all Monash campuses and hospital-based research Schools, as well as outside research groups in the Victorian region. Furthermore, this equipment will support significant fiber optic research at Victoria University for the development of communication and endoscopic technology. The instrument design will allow multiple use of the lightsource and choice of specific imaging devices (microscopes) to ensure that applications in biocellular imaging, intravital microscopy and fiber optic design and imaging are individually optimised.
