Time-Resolved Microscopy Course
11. European Short Course on “Time-resolved Microscopy and Correlation Spectroscopy”
February / March 2019 in Berlin, Germany
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 the Life Sciences. Attendees are usually 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 from industry get the opportunity to enter this exciting field in a very effective way and benefit especially from the experimental section.
Practical sessions
Practical sessions using confocal microscopes provided by several market leading companies are part of the course:
- Nikon
- Olympus
- Zeiss
- PicoQuant
Participants will be divided into groups that rotate through the stations. This ensures that every participant will have the chance to familiarize himself with the broad range of techniques and methods of fluorescence (lifetime) microscopy.
Topics covered
Topics covered during the lectures and experimental station include:
- Instrumentation and data analysis
- Correlation methods: FCS, FCCS, FLCS, ...
- Imaging methods: FLIM, rapidFLIM, FRET, FLIM-FRET, ...
- STED super-resolution microscopy
- Single molecule microscopy
