Huisken Lab

A major requirement for our success has always been the integration into a strong multidisciplinary environment. Embedded in a scientific community that supports and challenges us, we have been most successful. For innovations in imaging instrumentation, we rely on strong ties to the physics, optics, microscopy, hardware, and software development communities. For our biological projects, we take inspiration from areas ranging from fundamental biology to medical applications. Both in vivo techniques and fixed and cleared tissue imaging have found many applications inside and outside our lab and have been trans-formative in a wide range of applications. Last but not least, data analysis and visualization are more important than ever, and therefore we seek input and support from the computer science community as much as we can. Smart microscopy and machine learning are becoming essential parts of our workflow to tackle the most interesting questions in fundamental cell and developmental biology as well as in clinically relevant biomedical imaging.
