Australian Research Centre Joins Global Imaging Network

The Walter and Eliza Hall Institute's (WEHI) Centre for Dynamic Imaging has become the first Australian institution to join the ZEISS Labs@location network, a global group of leading imaging facilities.

About the Partnership

The Centre for Dynamic Imaging, a research facility within WEHI, is now a partner in the ZEISS Labs@location network. This marks the network's first partnership with an Australian institution.

This partnership is the first to involve an Australian institution in this specific network, which comprises a group of global imaging leaders.

Research Focus

The centre's work involves using advanced microscopy to study processes inside living cells. This research contributes to studies across several key biomedical fields:

• Cancer
• Infection
• Immunity
• Neurodegeneration

Official Statement

Centre manager Professor Kelly Rogers OAM highlighted the importance of imaging technology in modern science.

"Such technology is a critical enabler for biomedical research and... visual observation aids scientific understanding in this field."
