Project description

In this project an imaging system will be applied, providing a powerful combination of quantitative image analysis (microscopy) and fluorescence activated cell sorting (FACS). By this approach, individual cells can be visualized in detail, to analyze for example organel structures within cells, mitochondrial depolarization, trace fluorescently labeled proteins with time, colocalization of (signal) molecules and tracking of individual cells.
