The Microscopy Imaging Center of Coimbra (MICC-CNC) at the Center for Neuroscience and Cell Biology is a centralized facility dedicated to supporting researchers in both conventional and advanced imaging techniques using Light Microscopy. Our facility combines state-of-the-art equipment and expert support, available to academic researchers and companies alike, aiming to enhance the research and teaching environment within the CNC scientific community.
To achieve these goals, MICC-CNC:
Provides technical training to both local and visiting researchers;
Offers consultation on experimental design and image analysis;
Integrates the latest advances in microscopy hardware and software relevant to biomedical sciences;
Promotes ongoing education in advanced microscopy through training courses and workshops.
MICC-CNC is a node of the PPBI-Portuguese Platform of BioImaging, an infrastructure of National Roadmap of Research Infrastructures of Strategic Relevance, which has recently become part of the ERIC – EuroBioImaging, and it is a partner of the Zeiss labs@location, which is a community of ZEISS customers providing in depth knowledge and dedicated services.
