Our members include research leaders and key teams with world-class expertise in biology, chemistry, physics and optoelectronics and who already benefit from synergistic cooperation and commercial focus. This Network consolidates these groups making it possible to translate scientific advances, from devising new fluorescent labels to system development, into market driven products informed by the knowledge of what the needs and emerging applications are. This enables generation of a high level of research expertise in all aspects of relevant technologies and appropriately qualified graduates.

Please download our Membership Benefits document.

Our vision of an internationally competitive network is an important part of the development of internationally competitive technology base and the associated industries.
