About the W.M. Keck Microscopy Innovation Center


The W.M. Keck Microscopy Innovation Center serves researchers of Whitehead Institute, MIT, and all external academic and commercial entities. We are an expert duo that works closely with potential and current users to offer personalized guidance and support from the very beginning of project development through to data analysis. We partner with our trainees to advance their research and give them the tools best answer their scientific questions through imaging.


Our goal is to go beyond providing technical expertise and offer hands-on, personalized support throughout your entire experimental process. Whether you're refining your experimental design, learning to use our instruments or those in your own lab, or developing your microscopy skills, we're here to help ensure your research is rigorous and reproducible while supporting your development as a microscopist.
