MBF Bioscience

MBF Bioscience is a biotech company that develops software and hardware for bioscience research and biomedical application. MBF Bioscience’s main location is Williston, Vermont, USA, but has offices that market, sell, and supports its line of hardware and software products throughout North America, Europe, and Asia.
History.
The company was founded as MicroBrightField,Inc in 1988 by father and son, Dr. Edmund Glaser and Jack Glaser. Their goal was to develop neuroanatomical image software for the research community. To reflect their expanded services, the company changed its name from MicroBrightField, Inc to MBF Bioscience, Inc in 2004. Now, MBF Bioscience provides solutions for stereology, neuron reconstruction, microscopic and whole slide imaging, brain mapping, and worm tracking. The company products are used in a variety of fields including stem cell research, neuroanatomical studies, lung, kidney, reproductive, cardiac and toxicology research.
In 2021, MBF Bioscience acquired Vidrio Technologies. Vidrio Technologies is a provider of software and hardware components for laser scanning and two-photon microscopes based out of Ashburn, Virginia, USA.
