Imaging Resource Facility

Welcome to the Imaging Resource Facility (IRF), a central biomedical resource of the School of Health and Medical Sciences. The IRF provides support as well as a high standard of service to the university researchers, St George’s NHS Trust and other academic institutions in a wide range of bioimaging disciplines. 

First established in 2014, the IRF provides access to Light Microscopy, Flow Cytometry and Histology methodologies and sample preparation, all housed in a single department providing a range of imaging analysis options and the expertise to compliment them. Users of the IRF have the ability to image histology samples, cells and molecules of all varieties, and model organisms such as zebrafish using any of the light microscope, slide scanning, or Flow cytometry systems we maintain, supported by experienced staff at all stages of analysis.
