Life science research and teaching at the University of Zurich (UZH) covers a large range from physical and molecular cell biology to developmental and organismic biology. Imaging techniques are key for the quest to understand how things work the way we observe them. During the last years, the development of selective plane illumination microscopy (SPIM) or lightsheet microscopy has given deep insights into biological processes and structures in cells, tissues and organisms. With this proposal, the University of Zurich aims to establish lightsheet microscopy for the life science community. We propose to install and administer a lightsheet microscope in the Center for Microscopy and Image Analysis (ZMB). With this setup, we strive to provide maximal support and accessibility of lightsheet microscopy for the life science community.
