BioImaging NanoCourse on Microscopy - 2009

This Nano Course will give you the opportunity to become familiar with both basic microscopy techniques and more advanced 3D microscopy and live imaging during two intensive afternoon sessions. Whether you are a beginning or intermediate microscope user, you will have the chance to learn all the relevant background in fluorescent widefield and confocal microscopy as well as obtain practical information on how to efficiently prepare samples, acquire data and obtain publication quality images.
