Science in your labs - Vienna 2014

PicoQuant: Science in your labs
“3rd FLIM and FCS Workshop”

November 18-19, 2014 in Vienna, Austria


Joint workshop of Max F. Perutz Laboratories, Campus Science Support Facilities (CSF) GmbH, and PicoQuant GmbH

Image Science in your labs - Vienna 2014 2014

Fluorescence Lifetime Imaging Microscopy (FLIM) and Fluorescence Correlation Spectroscopy (FCS) are particularly well suited to monitor interactions between molecules both in cells and in vitro. Yet, the 'activation energy' to apply these methods in life science research is relatively high. That is why one of the leading manufacturer of advanced imaging instruments PicoQuant, Vienna BioCenter Campus Science Support Facilities GmbH (CSF) and Max F. Perutz Laboratories (MFPL), which is a joint venture of the University of Vienna and Medical University of Vienna, joined efforts to organize the 3rd FLIM & FCS Workshop.

The workshop showcased the utility of the advanced imaging techniques in biological research and provide hands-on practicals using real samples in order to lower the 'activation barrier' for the potential users. Leading scientists introduced the concepts and applications of time-resolved fluorescence microscopy, fluorescence auto- and cross-correlation and anisotropy measurements, super-resolution imaging. Examples of their applications in biological research were demonstrated in the afternoon. Practical sessions also covered various aspects of sample preparation, data acquisition, and analysis. The program was completed by a poster session.
