From microscopy introductions to advanced training plans

Microscopes are very complex instruments. Top manufacturers like Nikon, Meiji Techno, Leica and Olympus continue to innovate in the sector, introducing new compound, stereo and digital microscopes with cutting edge features, improved image quality, durability and accuracy. That said, it can take some time to get used to your new ‘workhorse’ and our talented engineers can help you get off to the best possible start. We can also provide more advanced training courses specific to your application, whether that be tissue analysis, examining forensic evidence, studying protein in cells, or researching atomic structures.
