> Hi Francesco,

> We have a Nikon A1R on Ti2 on demo, resonant scanning combined with
> Nikon's new silicone lenses (long working distance, better match to live
> system) means we get excellent images on thick immunostained samples
> (organoids in matrix, tissue slices, young embryos). An organoid that
> would take ~30 minutes to image on a standard system is done in less than 6
> minutes and with very little noise... meaning some experiments that were
> going to be too long and too expensive are now considered do-able by a fair
> few post docs and PIs. The advantage is that we can also use Nikon's JOB
> for multiwell system (sadly not with the silicone lenses, but water lenses
> are an option).

> I'm hoping to test it on Ca++ imaging or on FRET.

> More details:
> - I do a lot of live experiments (traction force microscopy and

> tissues (600x600 um FOV) in 2D or 3D (<300 um thick) that I complement with
