Title: “The latest aims of AIM (Advanced Imaging and Microscopy)”
Summary:
AIM is a trans-NIH shared resource that houses, operates, disseminates, and improves next-generation and prototype optical imaging systems. AIM also provides support for advanced image processing, including applications of high-performance computing and artificial intelligence.
Microscopy and image processing are fields of active research and development, with new technologies constantly emerging to enable ever better interrogation of biological systems. However, these emerging technologies typically require years to become easily accessible as user-friendly commercial products. There is a need for early adopters to make such technologies rapidly accessible to the broader research community. To fill this need, AIM monitors developments in microscopy and advanced image processing, identifies useful technologies, and makes them rapidly available to biologists at the NIH before they become easily and broadly accessible. This provides NIH researchers with unique tools for biological measurement and insight that are not available elsewhere.
