On the island of Tromsø, in the cold waters of Norway's fjords and surrounded by snow-topped mountains and icy winds, lies the UiT Nanoscopy lab.

Funded by a grant from the European Union's Horizon 2020 program via a Marie Sklodowska-Curie Action Individual Fellowship to Dr Florian Ströhl and generous support by the Department of Physics and Technology and the Faculty of Science and Technology of the Arctic University of Norway, we strive to develop and apply advanced optical microscopy in the ultra-violet regime for quantitative nanoscopic imaging of mitchondria under physiological conditions and in pathology.

The MitoQuant project is conducted in Prof. Balpreet Ahluwalia's Nanoscopy Group, which is part of the Ultrasound, Microwave, and Optics division (UMO) at the Department of Physics and Technology (IFT) of the Arctic University of Norway (UiT).
