Expert training and support

Each Node is staffed with expert personnel who can provide the support required to maximise the output of your research project. Guidance is available for all aspects of the imaging pipeline, from study design to image capture and analysis. In addition, we provide access to training courses for all different levels of expertise.

Image data management

We help you extract meaningful conclusions from your image data through image analysis support, develop tools for handling large image datasets, and support you in making your data FAIR and sharing it widely.
