RT-SuperES is a project that creates a novel microscope equipped with machine learning-based automated decision making, allowing high-content imaging of embryonic stem cells in real-time. By combining conventional and super-resolution imaging, it explores cellular processes during differentiation at a nanoscale level. It will use cutting-edge technologies such as SNAP-tagging, SRRF, SMLM, SIM, NanoJ-Fluidics, and AI algorithms. The project brings together a multidisciplinary team across four countries to establish this groundbreaking and affordable imaging technology.
