PISCL is open to scientific communities of both the academic and private sectors. The services cost vary accordingly.
The services proposed by PISCL are linked to the two main facilities described above; they include imaging at different levels of resolution, from subcellular structures to in vivo function of organs; light and fluorescence microscopy especially allow studying the operating mechanisms of the immune system, from molecules to whole organisms, Training on the equipment and imaging techniques can also be provided to users.
