Atomic Force Microscopy technologies have come of age and are ubiquitous in many applications in life sciences. Besides allowing Force distance spectroscopy and high resolution 3 D images of samples close to their native state various technological developments has turned the technique into a multifunctional nanoscopic toolbox. A variety of applications will be discussed:
- High speed AFM: Seeing Molecular Motors at work
- Taking AFM Technology beyond imaging towards Personalised Healthcare (PHC) diagnostics
- New AFM based instrumentation developments
