Welcome to CAB!

The Center for Advanced Bioimaging (CAB) Denmark is a core facility at the University of Copenhagen and offers an instrument park unique in Denmark. PhD students, postdoctoral fellows, scientific staff and external users may get access to advanced microscopes after expert training by the CAB team.

CAB offers PhD and MSc courses on theory and with hands-on of the imaging techniques available at this and other imaging facilities.

In the coming spring season there are two courses that CAB is involved in.

The course Biological Imaging is a toolbox course that introduces all important modalities of advanced biological and biomedical imaging using electromagnetic and other radiation sources. The course runs from 20th of April to 20th of May 2026. After the basic module, there are two optional advanced modules: IR & Raman Imaging and X-Ray & Neutron Imaging.

The CAB-organised PhD course CAB Summer School in Advanced Live Cell Imaging for experienced microscopists comprises theory and hands-on time with the most advanced techniques in microscopy today, including analytical Raman microscopy, SHG, FLIM and various other fluorescence methods. The course is scheduled between 4th and 8th of May.
