PATENTS
Bearman, G.H., Fraser, S.E., and Lansford, R. (2000) System and method for monitoring cellular activity. Patent issued (US #6,403,332).
Work in laser microscopy and imaging spectrometry led to the development of a multispectral imager that allows the emission spectrum to be acquired from a single scan of the specimen. A multispectral detector based on our invention has been built and is being sold by Zeiss as the LSM 510 META.
