Ask the Experts

Hello. I’m Dr. Nicolas Bourg, chief technical officer (CTO) and co-founder of Abbelight and I’m your designated expert for single molecule localization microscopy (SMLM) – as known as nanoscopy – which includes techniques like PALM, dSTORM, SPT-PALM and DNA-PAINT.

I’m an optronic engineer by training, and I did a Ph.D. in biophotonics at the Paris-Saclay University, working on a unique 3D nanoscopy technique with unprecedented resolution. With my research team, we decided to share all the knowledge I acquired during my PhD and we created Abbelight: a startup that aims to make nanoscopy even more powerful and fully accessible to any biologist without advanced microscopy training. My job is to answer all your questions about nanoscopy, so please get in touch.
