μManager is being developed by Nenad
Amodaj and Nico
Stuurman in the laboratory
of Ron
Vale at the
University of California San Francisco. The project is
supported by a grant from the Sandler Foundation.
Micro-Manager is built by extensively using other open source
components and applications:
Especially important precursor contributions for our project are
from Wayne Rasband (ImageJ) and from Joachim Walter for his Image5D
plugin which we
extended and used for the multi-dimensional acquisition display.
Development of μManager has only been possible thanks to the
endurance of our early beta-testers, i.e. several members of the Vale
lab (Eric Griffis, Andrew Carter, Goghta Goshima and others). Many
thanks to Kurt Thorn and the Nikon Imaging Center at UCSF for help, testing, great ideas and suggestions. We are grateful
for support (in the form of documentation, information, and/or use of
equipment) from many microscope hardware vendors, including ASI, Andor,
DVC, Stanford Photonics, Hamamatsu, Prior, Solamer, Nikon, and Zeiss.
And of course, many thanks Ron for making it all happen.
