ABOUT US
Our mission is to help you
take control of your microscope.
Vidrio Technologies launched in 2014 to provide software for imaging in brain science, mainly ScanImage® and related tools.
ScanImage® is widely used open-source software for laser scanning microscopy. ScanImage® supports imaging of large populations of individual neurons and allows drilling down to individual cells and synapses.
Vidrio is the Spanish word for “glass”. This reflects its origin as a spin-off from HHMI’s glass-encased Janelia Research Campus and its goal of providing a clear “window into the brain”.

Karel Svoboda, PhD
Scientific Advisor
Karel has used laser scanning since he was a graduate student in the early 90s at Harvard. At Bell Labs he was the first to use two-photon laser scanning microscopy to image neural dynamics in vivo. His research continues to rely on a variety of optical measurements in behaving animals. Karel founded the open-source ScanImage® project in 2003 to enable cutting-edge brain imaging. Karel is a Vidrio founder and a Vidrio collaborator. He does not hold Vidrio shares nor does he receive consulting income from Vidrio.
