This site serves as home base for the Imaging Technology Group's contributions to that project--namely virtual microscopes and the multi-dimensional, high-resolution image datasets they view. The Virtual Microscope, which is available for free download supports functionality from electron, light, and scanning probe microscopes, datasets for these instruments, training materials to learn more about microscopy, and other related tools. The project is open source and the code is available on Sourceforge.
