Welcome to 3photon.org, an online repository of information about biological fluorescence microscopy with 3-photon excitation.

We aim to provide content of value to a wide range of scientists, from those looking to improve their understanding of the relatively new field of 3-photon microscopy, through experimentalists looking to convert a 2-photon microscope, to grizzled veterans looking for information on the latest developments.

​

Please contact us with suggested improvements and subscribe to be notified when the site is updated.

​

Information on 3photon.org is grouped into several categories, accessed via the menu bar.​

  • Fundamentals: Key information about 3-photon excitation, including its performance and limits.

  • ​Hardware: Practical information on building, aligning and using a 3-photon microscope, including key hardware used in published studies.

  • Resources: Online resources, including data sets and tools available for download, information on imaging conferences and workshops, and links to the many references cited throughout 3photon.org.

  • Site: 3photon.org is under constant development. If there's information you'd like to see on our site - changes you'd like to suggest, perhaps, or new topics you'd like to read about - please contact us. We welcome feedback and suggestions.
