Welcome to CAB!
Center for Advanced Bioimaging (CAB) Denmark is a core facility center 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.
Please note our new course on the use of electromagnetic radiation and neutrons to image whole organisms, tissues, cells or compartmens and resolve molecular structures! Register here for PhD and for MSc.
Consultation by experts
You don't know what you see in the confocal or the TEM? You need help for the best way to prepare difficult microscope sampels? Here you go!
