Mini-Symposium on "Instrumentation and Applications of Fluorescence Spectroscopy"

Aims and purpose

The Mini-Symposium was a single day event with lectures and hands-on demonstrations of the new fluorescence spectrometer FluoTime 300 and the single molecule fluorescence confocal microscope present at the laboratory for "Fluorescence Applications in Biology" (FAB lab). The event was intended for researchers interested in learning about new spectroscopy methods and single molecule research. This Mini-Symposium addressed to all levels of expertise, including graduate students, technicians and professional researchers.
