Time-Resolved Microscopy Course 2018
10. European short course on
"Time-Resolved Microscopy and Correlation Spectroscopy"
March 6-8, 2018 in Berlin, Germany
Summary
The 10th edition of this course was highly appreciated and found to be inspiring by the 40 participants from universities and industry. Six lectures and five hands-on sessions with instruments from major microscopy companies Nikon, Olympus, PicoQuant, and Zeiss were given. These sessions covered different methods and procedures used in (time-resolved) fluorescence microscopy such as FLIM / rapidFLIM, FLIM-FRET, F(L)CS, PLIM for material science, single molecule spectroscopy, and STED super-resolution microscopy.
Aim and purpose
The course is intended for individuals wishing an in-depth introduction to the principles of time-resolved fluorescence microscopy and its applications to Life Sciences. Attendees are typically professionals who are using or intend to use fluorescence microscopy in their research. Most attendees have some knowledge of fluorescence, typically in a specialized area. However, other individuals, from totally different research areas and industry, get the opportunity to enter this exciting field in a very effective way and greatly benefit from the experimental sessions.
