Microscopy Services

Welcome to the School of Life Sciences Microscopy Suite

Please read the guidelines here for working in our lab.

The Microscopy Discussion Forums are here

New! We're adding how to videos for Zen ( Zeiss instruments ) and ImageJ

We have three confocal microscopes, one spinning disc and a wide variety of other light microscopy equipment available for use.

If you wish to discuss a potential project,or need help with image processing please contact the manager i dot j dot portman at warwick dot ac dot uk

Until the situation changes we're limiting booking access to experienced users and cannot offer training. If you need microscopy but can't book. Please fill out the form here - Request form

If you are an approved user, you will have been emailed.

Approved users can book here
