The University of Otago (Te Whare Wānanga o Otāgo) hosts Dunedin's most extensive and diverse range of microscopy equipment, techniques and staff expertise. Research groups throughout the University also have microscopy-related equipment and staff, but these may not be accessible to outside users. Such facilities are welcome to add their contact details if they are amenable to other researchers using their equipment for collaborative purposes.

The most accessible microscopy services are those housed in the Otago Micro and Nano Imaging (OMNI) facility. These are listed below.
