World’s First Microhub Makes Spatial Context Accessible for All

New Mica imaging platform from Leica Microsystems brings previously inaccessible experiments to all life science researchers

Leica Microsystems has announced the launched of Mica, the world’s first Microhub. A microhub is a new type of wholly integrated imaging solution that leverages machine learning software, automation tools, and fluorescence unmixing techniques to automate the imaging workflow for researchers, regardless of their microscopy experience levels. Users can visualize four labels simultaneously in widefield using Leica’s patented FluoSync technology, which the company claims, can offer four times more data with 100% correlation compared to traditional fluorescence imaging methods. They can then switch seamlessly to confocal without moving the sample, to explore unexpected paths with no constraints.
