The BioDIP has developed over a couple of years. Major steps were the foundation of the Imaging Facilities Network (IFN) in 2006 and later the foundation of the BioDIP in 2013 enabled by the DFG "Core facilities" funding.
Here you find the timeline containing minor and major milestones of BioDIPs development.

Bert Nitzsche has joined the LMF at MPI-CBG
Currently, Berts main expertise within the facility focuses on the camera based imaging systems, such as TIRF, SIM, conventional widefield systems, localisation- based microscopy, spinning disc confocals and photo manipulation setups.
Prior to working in the facility Bert completed his PhD in biophysics in the group of Stefan Diez (MPI-CBG Dresden and BCUBE, TU Dresden).
He focused his work on microtubules and motor proteins, using techniques such as 3D single molecule imaging and nanometer tracking.
