"Godzilla:" Andor Dragonfly 620SR
Godzilla is an apt name for this do-it-all system. Bringing a plethora of features including full incubation chamber, 5-lasers, Borealis TIRF, SMLM, Mosaic digital micromirror and MicroPoint4 Ablation laser, this is a powerful system that can even destroy your sample. The speed of the spinning disk also means it can blast through your samples!
Funded by a Massachusetts Life Sciences Center (MLSC) research infrastructure program, this system is available to internal and external users.
