Oh dear

I donıt think Visitech would like to be known as flaky, and Iım pretty
sure that they subscribe to the confocal list, so will have seen this
post. In fact, they have just collaborated with Hari Shroff and his group
at NIH to commercialise the iSIM:

Which looks interesting.

Iıve also heard that the spinning disk confocal that they sell is quite
good - but not tried it personally.

Sometimes us Europeans are OK.

All best

Michelle
