About us
The Center for Advanced Light Microscopy (CALM) is a center of excellence, located at the LMU Biocenter and BioSysM, with the mission to provide easy access to cutting-edge imaging devices and to support researchers during image acquisition and data analysis. The center is open to all groups at the LMU Munich, scientific collaborators and external users upon request.
New at CALM:
The new Leica Stellaris II with extended excitation range (fixed 405 nm and 448nm plus tunable laser between 485-790 nm) runs at room temperature and is well-suited for e.g. cyanobacteria, algae and plant specimens.
Three column teaser
The heading is optional. The optional introduction text should not exceed 320 characters. Otherwise you will get a warning. An additional button can be set optionally, it appears at the bottom right.
High content screening
Typically, high content screeners are optimized for the investigation of multiwell plates (24 well-1536 well)

Spinning disk confocal
The difference between a point scanning confocal and a spinning disk confocal microskope is the number of image points aquired at the same time

Structured Illumination
Structured illumination was the first super resolution technique available.

Wide field
In wide field fluorescence microscopy, the entire field of view is illuminated with excitation light that is reflected ba a beam splitter into the microscope beam path.
