Austrian BioImaging/ CMI is the national Euro-BioImaging Node of Austria. It was established as a consortium of leading imaging scientists of eight universities and research institutes in and around Vienna to foster and pioneer correlated multimodal imaging across scales in life sciences. Correlated imaging gathers information about the specimen with two or more complementary modalities that - combined - create a highly informative, composite view of the sample. 

CMI offers a multitude of basic and high-end state-of-the-art imaging technologies from preclinical imaging to super-resolution microscopy, numerous multimodal correlated imaging pipelines, and various support services, such as data and image analysis, to researchers, scientists and companies on a national and international level. Imaging techniques at CMI span the entire resolution range of interest for preclinical and biological studies, and provide complementary sample information about structure, function and molecular composition. The more than 35 imaging techniques allow both in- and ex-vivo imaging and molecular analysis. Particularly, CMI is developing and setting up entirely new multimodal workflows at the forefront of correlated imaging, which can involve more than two imaging modalities - and hence significantly advances the field with truly holistic approaches.

Over the last few years, imaging and imaging platforms have evolved rapidly and place high demands on technology, innovation and management. With the foundation of CMI, Austria meets the arising need in international research for centralized platforms with both highly specialized and holistic imaging approaches.
