The Purdue Imaging Facility (PIF) provides the instruments and expertise needed to visualize molecules in preparations ranging from single cells to entire animals. All facility users receive individualized instrument training as well as project-specific advice for optimal data acquisition. Consultation on sample preparation, image rendering and data analysis are also available. Collaborations and contract research services are encouraged.
Our PIF is distributed in two different buildings, Bindley B071 and Hansen B032.
