Imaging is now one of the most commonly used techniques in biological research. It is not simply a means of taking a pretty picture; rather advanced microscopy and imaging are now vital biophysical tools underpinning our studies of the most complex biological systems. We have the capability to study cells in real time, with 3D volumes, analysing biophysical interactions, and now moving towards the ability to see and study individual proteins within individual cells within their native environment. Imaging is one of the most useful tools for understanding the fundamental biology of the cell. This has been made possible through an incredibly rapid period of microscopy development, which has gone hand in hand with the emergence of new fluorescent tags – such as fluorescent proteins – computing power and the latest developments in engineering. Not only has the technology become increasingly versatile and opened up many new possibilities, but leading manufacturers have also made their microscopes increasingly accessible to non?specialists, resultingin an explosion of data.
