New: MSc Stem Cells in Development, Disease and Regeneration
A full list of research facilities available within the UEA Science Faculty can be viewed here.
The School of Biological Sciences houses facilities for all of the main model organisms used in Developmental Biology research:
human stem cells/organoids
mouse
chick
Xenopus
zebrafish
Drosophila
C. elegans
UEA's Bio Imaging Platform (located in the Henry Wellcome Laboratory for Cell Imaging) houses a number of multi-user microscopes suitable for Developmental Biology and Stem Cell research. These include:
Zeiss LSM980 + Airyscan 2 confocal microscope.
La Vision TriM Scope II multi-photon microscope for deep-tissue imaging or Fluorescence Lifetime IMaging (FLIM). This instrument is equipped with upright and inverted stands, a secondary laser for photo-treatments (e.g. photo-bleaching, photo-activation, ablation) and adaptive optics.
Wide-field inverted fluorescence microscopes with temperature and CO2 regulation for time-lapse imaging.
Dedicated cell/tissue culture lab.
Dedicated computer analysis suite including multiple workstations and an Acquifer Hive system for image processing, analysis and storage.
