The centre combines frontline technical expertise with advanced knowledge of translational medicine and molecular bioscience. SciLifeLab is a joint effort between Karolinska Institutet, KTH Royal Institute of Technology, Stockholm University and Uppsala University. SciLifeLab was established in 2010 and today, approximately 1,500 persons work within the centre. SciLifeLab consists of a number of platforms and facilities, and the BioImage Informatics Facility (BIIF) is focused on research and support on digital image processing and analysis for life-science applications.
