Forerunners for using Supercritical Angle Fluorescence (SAF) as a sensor for 3D imaging, the work of Sandrine and Emmanuel led to several patents and applications of SAF to different imaging techniques, including nanoscopy.
As a former PhD student of Sandrine Lévèque-Fort, Nicolas Bourg developed a strong and multidisciplinary expertise in 3D nanoscopy using SAF for 3D localization. Joined by Jean-Baptiste Marie, they decided to transfer this expertise to research labs to promote Single Molecule Localization Microscopy.
Empowered by its academic origins, abbelight aims to make 3D fluorescence nanoscopy accessible to all research laboratories.
