The California NanoSystems Institute (CNSI) at the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA), is collaborating with imaging systems provider Photron to develop specialized instrumentation for the CNSI's core laboratory facilities.

San Diego-based Photron has donated three cameras for use in the CNSI's Advanced Light Microscopy/Spectroscopy (ALMS) core lab.

One of eight core labs at CNSI, the ALMS lab focuses on optical imaging and advanced image analysis techniques for the study of macromolecules, cellular dynamics and the nanoscale characterization of biomaterials, including single-cell study and single-cell detection.
