Facilities

• Biosuite
  A custom-built facility that supports microbial cell culture and protein production.
• Peptide synthesis and biophysics
  Facilities for peptide synthesis and determination of biophysical properties.
• Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR)
  Complete facilities for molecular structure determination, e.g. for refining protein, DNA or RNA structures or high-throughput protein-protein or protein-ligand binding experiments.
• Confocal and light microscopy
  A suite of confocal and widefield microscopes for FLIM/STED experiments, and live cell, microfluidics and fixed imaging.
• Electron microscopy
  A suite of electron microscopes, including a correlative light electron microscope to allow zoom-in to visualise cellular structures, or cryo-EM and electron tomography experiments.
• Holographic microscopy
  Digital holographic microscopy A new quantitative method of phase contrast microscopy.
• Microfluidics
  A clean room and equipment to design and run bespoke 3D microfluidics devices.
• Flow cytometry
  State-of-the-art instrumentation for flow cytometric analysis and fluorescence activated cell sorting (FACS).
• High Performance Computing (HPC)
  A dedicated compute cluster and storage to support biomolecular simulation, bioinformatics and cell modelling applications.
