Time-resolved Microscopy Course
14th International Course on “Time-resolved Microscopy and Correlation Spectroscopy”
March 1-4, 2022, Virtual Meeting
Scope
Our course provides an in-depth introduction to the world of time-resolved fluorescence microscopy with a focus on life science applications. The course combines a series of lectures by experts in the field with practical sessions on systems from market-leading companies.
The schedule of the online course will run between 12:00 pm to 7:00 pm CET (Berlin time) to better accommodate participants from different time zones.
Who should attend?
The content is geared towards both novice researchers as well as those having some previous experience with time-resolved methods and applications.
Why should you attend?
Join our event to:
- Learn the principles behind time-resolved fluorescence microscopy
- Get to know powerful applications that will help advance your research
- Understand how time-resolved data is acquired and analyzed
- Interact directly with experts to discuss your research and foster collaborations
- See confocal microscopes from various companies live in action
- Talk to and socialize with your fellow scientists
Which topics are covered?
Attending the lectures and practical sessions will provide you with a better understanding of the following topics:
- Instrumentation and data analysis
- Correlation spectroscopy methods: FCS, FCCS, FLCS, ...
- Imaging methods: FLIM, rapidFLIM, FRET, FLIM-FRET, ...
- Single molecule microscopy
Practical sessions
Confocal microscopes from major manufacturers will be used during the practical sessions. On each day we will perform a live demonstration on one of the systems that focuses on a special topic. This will give everyone a chance to familiarize themselves with all featured instruments and techniques and ask live questions during these sessions!
The following instruments will be featured:
- Nikon: AX
- Olympus: FluoView FV3000
- Zeiss: LSM 980
- PicoQuant: MicroTime 200 with FLIMbee, MicroTime 100
