New "super resolution microscope" to be build in Cambridge
Prof Clemens Kaminski, head of the Laser Analytics Group in the Department of Chemical Engineering and Biotechnology, has been awarded around £100k by Alzheimer’s Research UK.
He and his researchers will build a unique, state-of-the-art microscope that could aid the development of new drugs for Alzheimer’s disease. This tailor-made 'super-resolution' microscope will be capable of revealing the fine detail of proteins that are linked to the disease.
Cambridge scientists working in the field of dementia will have access to this piece of equipment. By pooling the expertise of biologists, physicists and engineers this super-resolution microscope will be tailored to answer fundamental questions in Alzheimer’s research.
Further information can be found in a recent publication in the Journal of the American Chemical Society and on the Laser Analytics Group's website.
