More #introduction about our ZooCELL network.

We will do a lot of volume electron #microscopy #volumeEM focusing on sensory systems in marine #animals

We will combine this with single-cell #genomics, correlative LM/EM, #AI -based image segmentation and classification, and genetics

You can read more about the participating labs here:

https://zoocell.eu/consortium/#Beneficiaries

We will post about events, projects etc. in the coming years.
