FEMTO3D Atlas Plug&Play

Our AO technology has won several prestigious grants and prizes and has been validated by groundbreaking scientific results published in high-impact scientific journals (Science, Nature Methods, Nature Neuroscience). Our professionals hold presentations at the most prestigious neuroscientific conferences regularly.

Where did we start?

Our company was founded in 2005 by two scientists as a spin-off R&D company with roots in the Institute of Experimental Medicine.
The main mission of the founders was to reform the established techniques of neuroscience and human diagnostics. Since then, we have expanded into a highly qualified multidisciplinary team of optical and mechanical engineers, physicists, biologists, physicians, mathematicians and scientists from many related fields. Our performance-driven attitude, unshakable focus on our customers and our determination to address emerging scientific needs has resulted in 20 world records, 120+ installed setups, 300 satisfied users and 140+ publications.
