About us
DeepEn is a spin-off from Leibniz Institute for Photonic Technologies in Jena, Germany. We focus on the development of solutions in the field of fibrephotonics, biophotonics and bioimaging.
What we do
At DeepEn, we develop hair-thin microendoscopes that deliver fast, high-resolution images from inside sensitive and dynamic environments. By using a single optical fibre as an imaging probe, we can bring the performance of modern microscopes into extremely tight or sensitive spaces, thus redefining the possibilities of bioimaging.
Who we are
DeepEn is a research transfer start-up from Leibniz Institute of Photonic Technologies in Jena, Germany. Driven by the vision to make high-performing hair-thin endoscopes available to users in medicine, neuroscience and industry, our multidisciplinary and international team embarked on its journey in 2021. We are building on the achievements of over 10 years of dedicated research in the fields of fibre photonics and neuroimaging.
Our technology
NeuroDeep Laboratory Workstation
In close collaboration with researchers from neuroscience and photonics, we have developed the first commercially available hair-thin fluorescence microscope optimised for in vivo imaging.
