We have the problem of our cells differentiating well on specific coverslips,
and not those of mattek dishes. In the meantime of trying to identify other
dishes, we continue to use coverslips.

We image just with a dipping lens, but would like some more resolution.

Is it possible to mount the "coverslip with cells" upsidedown onto a new
mattek dish and then image it using an inverted microscope with a water
immersion lens?

Is there another way around this?
