About NBIC

Established in 2020, the Peking University National Biomedical Imaging Center (NBIC), affiliated with the College of Future Technology at Peking University, constructs and operates the Multimodal Trans-Scale Biomedical Imaging Facility located in Huairou District, Beijing. Leveraging Peking University’s interdisciplinary strengths in science, engineering and medicine, NBIC develops advanced imaging technologies and instrumentation to realize multi-dimensional digital and intelligent analysis of living organisms, ranging from molecular structures to whole organs.

NBIC hosts state-of-the-art platforms covering multimodal medical imaging, live-cell imaging, high-resolution molecular imaging, integrated data processing and model-animal research, enabling precise, real-time visualization of biological processes. Supported by these platforms, researchers can decipher mechanisms underlying complex diseases, accelerate drug discovery, and drive transformative advances in life sciences and medicine across the globe.
