Congratulations to our young talent, Dr. Florian Ströhl, who has been granted 8 million NOK for his project:
Development of Real Volumetric Microscopy through Single Objective Light-Sheet Imaging System (SOLIS) by the Research Council of Norway.
Dr. Ströhl and his team will build a completely new type of microscope that will be gentle, fast, high resolution, and compatible with simple sample handling. Together with his collaborators at the UiT – The Arctic University of Norway, namely Dr. Åsa Birgisdottir and professor Truls Myrmel, this technique will be applied to the study of mitochondrial transfer in heart cells cultured in the lab.
