Deep Tissue Imaging
From Visible to IR Wavelengths
Embryonic development relies on genetic coding and non-coding informations. In particular, physical forces generated by blood flow are critical for proper development of the cardiovascular system. To gain new insight into the fundamental control of cell response to physical changes and to study the dynamics and roles of biological flow during the development of the zebrafish, Dr. Julien Vermot established his lab in 2009 at the Institute of Genetics and Molecular and Cellular Biology (IGBMC) in Strasbourg, France. He belongs to the first lab to use the Leica DM6000 CFS equipped with an
