This inverted N-STORM microscope is equipped with optics for TIRF and STORM and cameras for both high sensitivity or high speed imaging. An OkoLab stage top incubator can be used for live cell imaging and the Nikon Perfect Focus assist in maintaining focus for time lapses and super resolution imaging.
