Live Cell Imaging is a microscopy-based technique used to observe and record living cells in real time while they remain alive and functioning. Unlike traditional microscopy methods that often require cells to be fixed (killed and preserved), live cell imaging allows researchers to study dynamic biological processes as they occur.

Why is Live Cell Imaging Important?

It helps scientists understand how cells behave over time, including:

• Cell division (mitosis and meiosis)

• Cell migration and movement

• Intracellular transport of proteins and organelles

• Gene expression dynamics

• Cell signaling pathways

• Drug responses and toxicity

• Host–pathogen interactions
