Molecular and Cellular Biodiversity Imaging Center

This new center integrates the scientific mission of Stanford with technological capabilities and scientific rigor in the Biology Department, Biosciences more broadly, and the Oceans Department in the Doerr School of Sustainability. With technology rarely available at a marine station, including two confocal microscopes and a maker space for bringing novel ideas to fruition, the center offers a unique and flexible resource. The center’s explicit mission is to provide Stanford research groups, both resident and visiting, with an integrated center of biodiversity and biotechnology, to enable fundamental discoveries in molecular, cellular, physiological and developmental biology.
