The Cell Imaging Facility is located on the second floor of the Morton Building at Northwestern University Feinberg School of Medicine. Covering a sixteen-room suite of ~2,300 sq. ft (Morton 2-521 to 2-690), the Cell Imaging Facility provides state-of-the-art light and electron microscopic instruments and consultation to researchers at the Medical School, the Evanston main campus, as well as to users at Children's Memorial Institute for Education and Research (CMIER).

The facility staff members are committed to provide consultation for experimental designs involving cell imaging, instrument choice, instrumental training, sample and control preparation, image analysis, as well as exploring and expanding the use of cutting edge imaging instruments and techniques. Please explore the capability of various key instruments on this webpage.

The Cell Imaging Facility is now actively organizing numerous workshops to keep the NU users abreast of the current imaging techniques. Please make sure you are aware of these great opportunities to learn more about image acquisition and analysis methodology by checking on the "workshop" link above.
