Introducing NovaFLIM: Advanced analysis of images

The new software package is based on GPU-accelerated algorithms

Our new software NovaFLIM is designed for an efficient and multi-faceted analysis of FLIM, FLIM-FRET, and anisotropy imaging. It simplifies batch analysis of time-lapse, z-stack measurements with GPU-accelerated data processing. The software includes multi-exponential fitting, phasor plots, and pattern matching analysis increasing the confidence in the analysis and simplifying the application of time-resolved imaging in molecular cellular biology and in specific to liquid-liquid phase separation, cellular environment sensing, and cellular plant biology.
