Computers

The LMCB light microscopy and electron microscopy facilities have an image processing suite currently consisting of 6 computers located in room 2.19A in the Medawar Building. There are a number of different image analysis software packages installed on the machines. The list below provides further information about the specifications of the computers and the software installed. Computers must be booked using the and training can be provided for anyone unfamiliar with the software. I have only included commercially available software in the list but the computers will also have Fiji or ImageJ installed.
